Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 11 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 22 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 20 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

The roll
Liftoff and climb
Plan view the roll down the 3,580 m runway.
Rolled from 89 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 11 m at the widest, and lifted off 5.8 m right, in 9 kn of crosswind from the right. Airborne 34 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.
The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.
Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 783 ft.
Reached 35 ft with 2,025 m of runway left; gear up at 91 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,700 fpm on average to 783 ft.
The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.
Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.
Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The figure at liftoff is the pitch then. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.
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.
When the approach was stable
Every check met from 4 nm to 1.0 nm, then not again: right of the centreline from 1.0 nm to the threshold.
Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.
The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.
Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.
Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 20 ft below the slope.
Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.
Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 7× larger than distances along the final.
Inside the 1° band from 4 nm to 1.0 nm, then 34 m right of it from 1.0 nm to the threshold.
Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.
Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.
Inside the speed band all the way, between +1 kt and +4 kt on the approach speed of 138 kt.
Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.
Over the threshold
Excellent landing flare
It lost 4.3 points, mostly for the nose going up and down 3 times.
Touchdown
Rollout
Taxi in
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Crossed the threshold at 64 ft, 14 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare at 31 ft. Touched down 606 m in, 302 m past the ideal 305 m.
The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.
Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.
The sink went from 600 fpm at the flare to 360 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 1.5° on the way down. Into the flare at 139 kt, on the 138 kt approach speed, and 130 kt at touchdown.
Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 4,014 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 19 m right of the centreline, and stayed about there down the rollout, 19 m right at the widest. Little crosswind (2 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down with the nose 1° right of the track, wings level.
Wind 080° at 3 kt · 1 kt tail · 2 kt across
The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way. The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.
Touched down 606 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The 360 fpm arrival was firm.
The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.
From 131 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 36 s, an average deceleration of 0.15 g.
Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.
The rest of the report
Departing from Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, the Boeing 787-9 began its journey with a taxiing period of 12 minutes, covering 5 nautical miles to reach the runway. The aircraft then took off from runway 07, utilizing 1,226 meters, or 34% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 154 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 26°C, with a wind speed of 9 knots at 139 degrees, resulting in a 9-knot crosswind and a 2-knot headwind.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it traversed a distance of 119 nautical miles, increasing its altitude from 902 feet above sea level to 37,018 feet in 17 minutes. The enroute level cruise phase commenced 26 miles southeast of Shanghai Pudong International Airport, lasting 114 minutes and covering 897 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, reducing its altitude from 36,804 feet to 4,324 feet in 16 minutes, covering 93 nautical miles. Following a brief level cruise phase near Katsuura, Japan, the aircraft continued its descent, eventually landing on runway 34L at Narita International Airport.
The final approach to runway 34L was initiated from the southeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 329.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,204 feet above ground level. However, a go-around was executed at an altitude of 141 feet above ground level. The aircraft subsequently landed on runway 34L, with a touchdown point 182 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The total landing distance was 1,415 meters, or 34% of the runway. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile in 4 minutes. The total flight distance was 1,244 nautical miles, with a total fuel consumption of 17,281 kilograms and a flight duration of 203 minutes.
