MY FS FLIGHTS
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 21 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,526 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 374 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from its parking position to runway 13 at FSIA Seychelles International Airport in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 13, the aircraft used 1,199 m of runway (45 % of the available length) and lifted off at 176 kt; ambient temperature was 30 °C with a wind of 4 kt from 149°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt head-wind component.
The initial climb began 1 nm south-east of FSIA, climbing from 1,041 ft asl to 31,748 ft asl - an increase of 30,706 ft - in 17 minutes while covering 117 nm.
Level cruise commenced 42 nm north-west of FSSB Bird Island Airport and continued for 68 minutes, during which 572 nm were flown.
A subsequent climb started 70 nm south of Hobyo, raising the aircraft from 31,999 ft asl to 33,996 ft asl - a gain of 1,997 ft - in 3 minutes over a distance of 26 nm.
The next cruise segment began 49 nm south of Hobyo and lasted 186 minutes, covering 1,541 nm.
A further climb was initiated 32 nm south of Duba, increasing altitude from 34,036 ft asl to 35,906 ft asl - a rise of 1,870 ft - in 2 minutes and spanning 12 nm.
Cruise continued 23 nm south of Duba for 192 minutes, during which 1,522 nm were traversed.
The aircraft then climbed overhead Vinski Vrh, gaining 1,386 ft from 36,610 ft asl to 37,995 ft asl in 2 minutes while covering 11 nm.
A cruise phase over Janzev Vrh lasted 60 minutes and included 451 nm of flight.
Descent began 2 nm north of Drensteinfurt, dropping from 38,001 ft asl to 10,014 ft asl - a loss of 27,987 ft - in 15 minutes and covering 96 nm.
After that descent, a short level cruise of 5 minutes was flown north of Lelystad, adding 24 nm to the flight path.
The next descent started 1 nm north of Heerhugowaard, reducing altitude from 9,974 ft asl to 1,290 ft asl - a decrease of 8,683 ft - in 9 minutes over 32 nm.
Final approach to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol descended from 1,338 ft agl to 67 ft agl in 98 seconds; the approach was recorded as scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 18R, whose length is 3,526 m, occurred with a threshold height of 56 ft agl slightly above target and a threshold speed of 145 kt; touchdown was achieved 374 m down the runway at 155 kt, with a heavy touchdown rate of minus 1,897 fpm and very good alignment, while local weather reported 29 °C temperature, wind 9 kt from 139°, a 6 kt cross-wind and a 7 kt head-wind component.
In total, the flight covered 4,412 nm, lasted 563 minutes, and consumed 72,553 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300ER recorded a score of 83.8% and executed a stabilised approach at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The final approach was to runway 18R at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, descending from 1,338 ft agl to 67 ft agl in 98 seconds and receiving a stabilisation-gate rating.
During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft landed on runway 18R, whose length is 3,526 m. The threshold height measured 56 ft agl, which was slightly above the target, while the threshold speed was good at 145 kt.
Touchdown occurred 374 m down the runway, a distance judged good, with a touchdown speed of 155 kt that was a little fast. The vertical rate at touchdown was very heavy at -1,897 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was very good. Local weather was 29 °C with wind 9 kt from 139°, including a 6 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt headwind component.
Refine the flare technique to reduce the heavy sink rate and adjust the approach speed slightly lower to bring touchdown speed closer to the target, which will smooth the touchdown while preserving the strong alignment already achieved.
