MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 1.9°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 14 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 14 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 14 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,801 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,801 m of the 3,741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 588 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 34 at Zürich Airport (LSZH) in Switzerland. The takeoff distance was 2,373 meters, which is 73% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 194 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 3°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 29°. The crosswind was 4 knots, and the headwind was 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Niederglatt/Grafschaft in Switzerland, where it climbed from 2,380 feet above sea level to 29,050 feet above sea level, an increase of 26,670 feet in 20 minutes, covering a distance of 88 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile east of Oberriexingen in Germany and lasted for 588 minutes, covering a distance of 4,387 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 28,101 feet above sea level to 34,187 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,086 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles. This climb started 28 miles southeast of Old Harbor in Alaska, United States.
The enroute level cruise started 65 miles southeast of Alitak Seaplane Base in Alaska and lasted for 348 minutes, covering a distance of 2,024 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 77 miles northeast of the Amphibious Ready Group in Hawaii, United States. The descent was from 36,763 feet above sea level to 8,235 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,528 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 86 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Waimanalo Beach in Hawaii and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute descent, this time from 8,189 feet above sea level to 1,309 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,880 feet in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles. This descent started 1 mile south of Honolulu in Hawaii.
The final approach to runway 08L at Daniel K Inouye International Airport in Hawaii was from the west, heading 90.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,288 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 08L was successful, with a touchdown point 171 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 136 knots, which was good, but the touchdown rate was fair at -217 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.9 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 27°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 70°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 14 knots. The total landing distance was 1,719 meters, which is 46% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.4 meters from the centerline.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6,658 nautical miles, taking 899 minutes, and the aircraft used 127,730 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at PHNL Daniel K Inouye International Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.2%. The final approach to runway 08L was initiated from the west, with a heading of 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,288 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach to the runway was generally good, with a threshold speed of 146 knots, which met the target. However, the threshold height at 65 feet agl was above the target, indicating a slight deviation in the aircraft's descent. The touchdown point was 171 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 136 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. However, the touchdown rate of -217 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 8.9 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly higher touchdown rate.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 27°C and a wind speed of 15 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was relatively low at 5 knots, while the headwind component was 14 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 1,719 meters was 46% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.4 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the slightly higher touchdown rate.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations in the approach and touchdown. The aircraft's performance was generally good, and the crew's skills were demonstrated in bringing the aircraft down safely and smoothly.
