MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Roll the wings level with aileron and hold bank within limits as you establish the climb.
What happened: Bank increased to 0.9° during the initial climb, and wings stayed over-banked at 5.1° into the next climb segment.
Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level
Arrival
Wait for the normal flare band and the correct speed before raising the nose, rather than starting the flare at 84 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 84 ft, 39 ft above the normal band, and the touchdown followed at 292 fpm. Starting the flare this early usually carries through to a firmer arrival than a flare begun in the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: hold the flare start within the normal flare band
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,872 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,872 m of the 2,692 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,080 m past the threshold — beyond 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 16L at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (KSEA). The takeoff distance was 1,608 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 167 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 7°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at 96°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile southwest of SeaTac, Washington. The climb took 29 minutes and covered a distance of 223 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,463 feet above sea level to 36,936 feet above sea level.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 160 minutes and covered a distance of 1,342 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 36,987 feet above sea level to 38,746 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles in just 5 minutes. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 318 minutes and covered a distance of 2,701 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 9 miles south of Eastbourne, England. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 102 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 38,818 feet above sea level to 11,912 feet above sea level. The aircraft then entered a brief level cruise phase, lasting just 3 minutes and covering 22 nautical miles, before beginning its final descent.
The final descent took place over Montataire, France, and lasted 12 minutes, covering a distance of 42 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from 11,087 feet above sea level to 1,676 feet above sea level. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 27R at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG), flying from the east and heading 266.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,326 feet above ground level.
The landing took place on runway 27R, which had a length of 2,692 meters. The threshold height was well above the target, while the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 134 knots. The touchdown point was 663 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 127 knots and a touchdown rate of -272 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 12°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,790 meters, which accounted for 67% of the runway. The aircraft then taxied to the parking from the runway, taking just 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 4,487 nautical miles, taking a total of 552 minutes and using 55,635 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport on runway 27R. The final approach was initiated from the east, heading 266.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,326 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and the results showed a score of 84.8%.
The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with the threshold height being well above the target at 77 feet agl. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 134 knots. Despite this, the touchdown point was 663 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance. The touchdown speed of 127 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a good control of the aircraft's descent.
The touchdown rate of -272 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down more smoothly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 6 knots at 230°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions contributed to a relatively smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,790 meters was 67% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing of the Boeing 777-200ER at LFPG Charles de Gaulle International Airport was satisfactory, with some areas for improvement. The aircraft's performance was good, and the weather conditions were favorable, contributing to a relatively smooth landing.
