Flight Score
Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 198 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 170 kt against a target of 198 kt, running 28 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 198 kt.
Arrival
Apply small rudder corrections at touchdown, aiming at a point at the far end of the runway, to stay on the centreline.
What happened: Touchdown drifted 8.6 m off the centreline, and landings like this usually carry that drift into the rollout, where the alignment error grew to 11 m.
Watch for: Runway centreline: aircraft tracking directly over it through touchdown and rollout.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,677 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,677 m of the 3,288 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 658 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The 777-200LR taxied from the parking area to runway 22R at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport, covering roughly 1 nm in 9 minutes.
During the departure roll on runway 22R, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 169 kt and left the ground after traveling 1,681 m, which represented 58 % of the runway length. Ambient conditions were 25 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 213°, a headwind component of 1 kt and no cross-wind.
Climb commenced about 1 mile east of Elizabeth, New Jersey, with the airplane climbing from 968 ft asl to 35,996 ft asl, an increase of 35,028 ft achieved in 16 minutes while covering 103 nm.
The first cruise segment began 2 miles west of Oxford, Pennsylvania, and continued for 66 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 525 nm at level altitude.
Descent started 1 mile northwest of the 86GA Flying G Ranch Airport Tunnel Hill in Georgia, descending from 35,998 ft asl to 4,242 ft asl, a loss of 31,756 ft over 18 minutes and a distance of 118 nm.
A brief cruise followed 4 miles south of Locust Fork, Alabama, lasting 2 minutes and covering 5 nm.
The next descent began 3 miles northeast of Clay, Alabama, with the aircraft descending from 3,744 ft asl to 1,895 ft asl, a reduction of 1,849 ft in 4 minutes while traveling 11 nm.
On final approach to runway 24 at KBHM Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport, the airplane descended from 1,300 ft agl to 42 ft agl in 93 seconds, and the approach was recorded as scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 24 was executed with a threshold speed of 149 kt; touchdown occurred 233 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 141 kt, a touchdown rate of minus 268 fpm, and a lateral deviation of 11.4 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 32 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 144°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and no head-wind.
The aircraft rolled out over a total landing distance of 1,588 m, representing 48 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 12.4 m.
After landing, the 777-200LR taxied to the parking area in 7 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 770 nm, required 119 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 14,660 kg of fuel.
The 777-200LR approached runway 24 at KBHM Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport in a stabilised configuration at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits, and earned a stabilisation-gate score. The aircraft descended from 1,300 ft agl to 42 ft agl in 93 seconds before final approach.
At threshold the height was good and the threshold speed was good at 149 kt. The aircraft crossed the threshold and the touchdown point was 233 m beyond the touchdown zone. Touchdown speed was 141 kt, noted as a little fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at -268 fpm. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.4 m from the centreline.
Touchdown occurred with the aircraft 233 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, at 141 kt and a vertical rate of -268 fpm, while the centreline deviation measured 11.4 m.
Rollout used a total landing distance of 1,588 m, representing 48 % of the 3,287 m runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 12.4 m from the centreline. Local weather was 32 °C with a 1 kt wind from 144°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind.
The score of 91.0 % reflects a solid performance; focus on reducing the touchdown point offset and improving centreline alignment to bring the landing closer to the aim point and maintain tighter lateral control. Maintaining the target touchdown speed nearer to the threshold speed will also help tighten the touchdown zone placement.
