MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Bring the nose up sooner, before reaching 184 kt, so the wheels leave the ground at the correct liftoff speed.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off fast at 212 kt, 28 kt above the target, and this pattern usually carries through into a climb speed that stays fast as well.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 204 kt in the climb
Arrival
Wait for the normal flare band and the correct speed before raising the nose, rather than starting the flare at 83 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 83 ft, 38 ft above the normal band, and the touchdown followed at 586 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
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 19 kt FAST on the reference speed of 153 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,045 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 278 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 777-300ER taxied from the parking area to runway 16L at SPJC Jorge Chavez International Airport, a movement that lasted 9 minutes and covered 5 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 16L, the aircraft used 2,475 m of runway, representing 69 % of the available length, and lifted off at 212 kt. Ambient conditions were 27 °C with a wind of 13 kt from 159°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 13 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced over Carmen De La Legua Reynoso, ascending from 1,185 ft asl to 33,576 ft asl, a gain of 32,392 ft achieved in 26 minutes while covering 183 nm.
Cruise began 7 miles south-west of Yauya (Ancash, Peru) and persisted for 341 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 2,831 nm.
Descent was initiated 1 mile north of Oneida, Kentucky, descending from 34,117 ft asl to 2,147 ft asl, a loss of 31,970 ft in 19 minutes and spanning 116 nm.
The final approach to runway 36R at KCVG Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport reduced altitude from 1,305 ft agl to 33 ft agl in 80 seconds; the approach was recorded as having scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 36R, whose length is 3,045 m, occurred with a threshold speed of 147 kt. Touchdown was recorded at 278 m from the threshold, at a speed of 144 kt, with a hard touchdown rate of minus 456 fpm and a lateral deviation of 11.7 m from the centreline. Local weather reported 22 °C, wind 10 kt from 350°, a 2 kt cross-wind and a 10 kt head-wind. The total landing distance measured 1,190 m, equivalent to 39 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was noted as slightly off centreline by 10.1 m.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking position in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 3,142 nm, required 399 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 67,567 kg of fuel.
The approach to runway 36R at KCVG was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits, and the aircraft descended from 1,305 ft AGL to 33 ft AGL in 80 seconds while maintaining the required parameters.
During the threshold and flare the aircraft achieved a good threshold height and a good threshold speed of 147 kt; the touchdown distance of 278 m and touchdown speed of 144 kt were also recorded as good, while the touchdown rate was hard at minus 456 fpm and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.7 m from the centreline.
Touchdown occurred with a speed of 144 kt, a hard vertical rate of minus 456 fpm, and the aircraft contacted the runway 278 m from the threshold, landing 11.7 m off the centreline.
Rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,190 m, representing 39 % of the 3,045 m runway, and the aircraft was slightly misaligned by 10.1 m from the centreline during the rollout; local weather was 22 °C with a 10 kt wind from 350°, including a 2 kt crosswind component.
Focus on maintaining centreline alignment through flare and rollout to reduce the observed offset, and refine flare technique to achieve a gentler touchdown rate than the recorded minus 456 fpm.
