MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 13°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 6.2 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 6.2 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.
See Arrival Landing
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

3 landings
The flight is kept as it was recorded: it ends when the engine is shut down, so a landing with the rotors turning is a stop along the way, not a new flight.
| # | Where | Into flight | Touchdown | Ground speed | Sideways | On the ground |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | LSZC · Buochs Airport | 10:57 | 547 ft/min | 20.0 kt | 1.7 kt | 0:14 |

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 1,720 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,720 m of the 3,014 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 401 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 31L at KJFK for 12 minutes, covering 3 nm, and departed on runway 31L. Takeoff used 1,544 m of runway (45 % of runway). Rotation occurred at 189 kt. Local weather was 27 °C with wind 13 kt from 240°, giving a crosswind component of 11 kt and a headwind component of 6 kt.
Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 27 seconds, averaging 1,781 fpm and reaching 197 kt at the top. The climb continued from 957 ft asl to 28,756 ft asl in 19 minutes, covering 119 nm, starting overhead Howard Beach. Level flight at 29,000 ft asl lasted 18 minutes, covering 136 nm, beginning 1 mile east of Lee. A further climb from 29,121 ft asl to 31,002 ft asl took 2 minutes over 13 nm, starting 2 miles west of 3NK5 Secret Spot Airport Plattsburgh. Level flight at 30,500 ft asl continued for 96 minutes, covering 759 nm, beginning 4 miles north of West Chazy.
Climb from 29,933 ft asl to 32,010 ft asl took 4 minutes over 28 nm, starting 35 miles north-west of CYSK Sanikiluaq Airport. Level flight at 32,000 ft asl lasted 199 minutes, covering 1,447 nm, beginning 66 miles north-west of CYSK. Climb from 31,954 ft asl to 33,879 ft asl took 2 minutes over 12 nm, starting 70 miles south-east of CYUB Tuktoyaktuk. Level flight at 34,000 ft asl continued for 299 minutes, covering 2,303 nm, beginning 56 miles south-east of CYUB.
Climb from 34,114 ft asl to 36,007 ft asl took 2 minutes over 12 nm, starting at Latitude 49.7017956 Longitude 159.329564. Level flight at 36,000 ft asl lasted 172 minutes, covering 1,143 nm, starting at Latitude 49.5305289 Longitude 158.9817019. Descent from 35,909 ft asl to 1,330 ft asl took 28 minutes, covering 134 nm, beginning 36 miles east of Kashima-shi.
Final approach to runway 34R at RJTT began with a descent from 1,320 ft agl to 48 ft agl in 97 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed, and wings level. Configuration on final was landing gear down at 2,169 ft agl at 179 kt, and final flap position 6 at 1,774 ft agl at 157 kt.
Landing on runway 34R (runway length 3,014 m) had a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 145 kt. The flare was described as great, though it started late. Touchdown occurred 401 m down the runway at 142 kt, a little fast, with a touchdown rate of minus 159 fpm. Alignment at touchdown was very good; there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 1,640 m (54 % of runway) and rollout alignment was perfect. Local weather at RJTT was 19 °C with wind 9 kt from 360°, giving a crosswind component of 4 kt and a headwind component of 8 kt.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to parking for 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The flight covered a total of 6,118 nm in 861 minutes and used 114,772 kg of fuel.
