Flight Score
Departure
Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 3.8°, more roll than the climb out called for.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb
A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

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.

Side view — the last 5,064 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,064 ft of the 10,691 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 435 ft 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport. The takeoff distance was 5,015 feet, which accounted for 71% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 172 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 35°F, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 20°. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 3 knots was present. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport. The climb took 23 minutes and covered a distance of 134 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from an altitude of 454 feet above sea level to 31,637 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 7 miles northeast of Cincinnatus, New York. This phase lasted for 525 minutes and covered a distance of 5,645 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 72 miles east of Kashima-shi, Japan. The descent took 17 minutes and covered a distance of 80 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 32,162 feet to 4,007 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 14 miles south of Asahi, Japan. This phase lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 3 miles east of Naruto, Japan. The descent took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles, with the aircraft decreasing its altitude from 3,428 feet to 1,416 feet.
The final approach to runway 34L at RJAA Narita International Airport was made from the southeast, with the aircraft heading 330.0° at an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 34L, which had a length of 13,691 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 150 knots.
The touchdown point was 652 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 144 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -205 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 18 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 28°F, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 250°. There was a crosswind of 1 knot and no headwind.
The total landing distance was 6,381 feet, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 11 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5,886 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 593 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 206,333 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at RJAA Narita International Airport, with a final approach score of 96.0%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the southeast, heading 330.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,268 feet above ground level (agl).
The landing was executed on runway 34L, which has a length of 13,691 feet. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed of 150 kt, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother landing.
The touchdown point was 652 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly further down the runway than ideal. The touchdown speed of 144 kt was also a little fast, which may have contributed to the longer landing distance. The touchdown rate of -205 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, indicating that the aircraft was descending at a moderate rate.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 18 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and aligned path after touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 28°F and a wind speed of 2 kt from 250°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, and the headwind component was zero. The total landing distance was 6,381 feet, which is 47% of the runway length. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown point and speed.
