Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 2.2°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,372 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 323 m touchdown sits inside 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 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 11 at YPDN Darwin International Airport / RAAF Darwin. The takeoff distance was 1,187 meters, which is 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 19 degrees. There was a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Winnellie in the Northern Territory, Australia. The climb took 41 minutes and covered 282 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,102 feet above sea level to 38,963 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,860 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 110 miles south east of WAPO Larat Airport in the Provinsi Maluku, Indonesia. This phase lasted for 125 minutes and covered 1,355 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 37 miles north west of EM05 Pacific Ocean Moving Carrier - CVN69 in the State of Yap, Micronesia. The descent took 20 minutes and covered 127 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 38,792 feet above sea level to 3,157 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,635 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 9 miles west of Santa Rita Village in the Santa Rita Municipality, Guam. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles north west of Santa Rita Village. The descent took 2 minutes and covered 5 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 2,981 feet above sea level to 1,530 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,452 feet.
The final approach to runway 06L at PGUM Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport was made from the south west, with the aircraft heading 65.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,277 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 133 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 323 meters, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 4 knots at 280 degrees. There was a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 3 knots. The total landing distance was 942 meters, which is 28% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,783 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 197 minutes. The aircraft used 10,743 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at PGUM Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport, achieving a score of 99.7%. The final approach to runway 06L was initiated from the southwest, with a heading of 65.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level.
The aircraft's approach to the runway was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a safe altitude before touching down. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 137 kt, which is a minor deviation. The touchdown distance of 323 meters was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilots' ability to control the aircraft's descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was recorded at 133 kt, which is slightly faster than the recommended speed. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -174 feet per minute was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, signifying that the pilots maintained the aircraft's alignment with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C and a wind speed of 4 kt from a direction of 280°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 kt, while the tailwind component was 3 kt. These conditions did not pose a significant challenge to the pilots, and the aircraft's performance was not affected.
The total landing distance of 942 meters was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This indicates that the pilots were able to control the aircraft's descent and touchdown with precision. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilots' ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated a high level of skill and proficiency in controlling the aircraft during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
