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 5.5 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 14 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 29 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 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 1,678 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,678 m of the 3,284 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 300 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 25R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport in 10 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
Take-off was executed on runway 25R with a ground roll of 2,562 m, representing 70 % of the available runway. Rotation was achieved at 184 kt. Ambient conditions were 27 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 252°, giving a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 3 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced one mile north-west of El Segundo, lifting the aircraft from 966 ft asl to 29,995 ft asl, an altitude gain of 29,029 ft in 17 minutes while covering 108 nm.
The first cruise segment began 36 nm south-west of KNSI San Nicolas Island Nolf Airport and continued for 50 minutes, during which 388 nm were flown.
A second climb started at latitude 28.025713, longitude -124.9766617, raising the aircraft from 30,002 ft asl to 30,995 ft asl, a gain of 993 ft in 2 minutes over 12 nm.
The subsequent cruise leg originated at latitude 27.8777409, longitude -125.1613388 and lasted 42 minutes, covering 342 nm.
A third climb was logged at latitude 24.0704651, longitude -129.9164581, increasing altitude from 31,004 ft asl to 31,897 ft asl, a rise of 893 ft in 2 minutes while traversing 13 nm.
The following cruise phase began at latitude 23.9162426, longitude -130.1091309, extending for 180 minutes and encompassing 1,531 nm.
Climb number four started at latitude 6.9890337, longitude -150.0108337, lifting the aircraft from 32,000 ft asl to 33,997 ft asl, an increase of 1,997 ft in 2 minutes across 13 nm.
Cruise segment five originated at latitude 6.8210096, longitude -150.1810303, lasting 227 minutes and covering 1,907 nm.
The fifth climb began 69 nm east of NFTP Kuini Lavenia Airport, raising the aircraft from 34,000 ft asl to 35,132 ft asl, a gain of 1,132 ft in 2 minutes while flying 13 nm.
The next cruise leg started 60 nm east of NFTP Kuini Lavenia Airport and continued for 157 minutes, during which 1,309 nm were covered.
Descent phase one was initiated 58 nm north-east of NZOX Okiwi Station Airport, descending from 36,003 ft asl to 2,936 ft asl, a loss of 33,067 ft in 22 minutes over 132 nm.
A brief cruise followed 9 nm west of Titirangi, lasting 4 minutes and spanning 11 nm.
Descent phase two began 9 nm south-west of Titirangi, dropping from 2,770 ft asl to 1,296 ft asl, a decrease of 1,474 ft in 3 minutes across 8 nm.
The first final approach to runway 05R at NZAA Auckland International Airport reduced altitude from 1,311 ft agl to 77 ft agl in 97 seconds, with the aircraft scoring on the stabilisation gates.
A go-around was executed on runway 05R at NZAA at 35 ft agl.
A second final approach to runway 05R at NZAA brought the aircraft from 1,335 ft agl to 64 ft agl in 102 seconds, again scoring on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 05R at NZAA, which is 3,284 m long, featured a threshold speed of 146 kt, a touchdown distance of 300 m, and a touchdown speed of 146 kt. The touchdown rate was minus 244 fpm and the touchdown point was misaligned by 16.6 m from the centreline. Local weather reported a temperature of 16 °C, wind 4 kt from 10°, with a 4 kt cross-wind and a 2 kt head-wind component.
Rollout distance totaled 1,615 m, representing 49 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was off by 29.0 m from the centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 10 minutes, covering 2 nm.
In total, the flight covered 5,852 nm, took 750 minutes, and consumed 102,069 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300ER approached runway 26R at KIAH in a stabilised configuration at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits. The aircraft descended from 1,248 ft AGL to 39 ft AGL in 94 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was good and the threshold speed was good at 148 kt. The aircraft touched down 50 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 145 kt that was a little fast and a touchdown rate that was fair at minus 255 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good.
At touchdown the speed of 145 kt remained slightly above the optimum, the vertical rate was minus 255 fpm, and the aircraft maintained very good alignment with the runway centreline.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,822 m, representing 66 % of the 2,740 m runway, and the aircraft finished slightly off centreline by 14.9 m.
Refine the flare to achieve a marginally lower touchdown speed and monitor centreline tracking during rollout to reduce the 14.9 m deviation, which will further improve the already strong 92.4 % score.
