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 6.9°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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: sink rate above what the glideslope needed and off the runway's 3° glideslope.
At the 500 ft gate: off the runway's 3° glideslope and off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,020 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,020 m of the 2,803 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 537 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 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 18L at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. The takeoff distance was 1,230 meters, which is 44% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 175 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 170 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Aalsmeerderbrug, a location in the province of Noord-Holland, Netherlands. The climb took 15 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,029 feet above sea level to 31,505 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 91 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 47 miles northwest of Oost-Vlieland, a location in the province of Friesland, Netherlands. This phase of the flight lasted 59 minutes and covered a distance of 508 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 31,846 feet above sea level to 33,249 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles in just 2 minutes.
The enroute level cruise resumed 88 miles north of EGPW Unst Airport Shetland Islands, Scotland, and lasted 218 minutes, covering a distance of 1,627 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 34,685 feet above sea level to 36,073 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles in just 2 minutes. The enroute level cruise started again, this time from a location near Latitude 74.6954956 and Longitude -73.6245079, and lasted 197 minutes, covering a distance of 1,563 nautical miles.
The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 35,979 feet above sea level to 36,878 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles in just 2 minutes. The enroute level cruise started again, this time from a location near Wembley, Alberta, Canada, and lasted 38 minutes, covering a distance of 309 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 9 miles southwest of Merritt, British Columbia, Canada, and took 23 minutes to descend from 36,919 feet above sea level to 1,814 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 103 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 08L at CYVR Vancouver International Airport was made from the west, heading 101.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,783 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 08L was successful, with a touchdown speed of 144 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown point was 124 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was firm at -306 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 80 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,942 meters, which is 69% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Vancouver International Airport (CYVR) on runway 08L, achieving a score of 95.7%. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 101.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,783 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 148 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly faster touchdown speed of 144 knots. However, the touchdown rate was firm at -306 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting a controlled and stable landing. The touchdown point was 124 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight overcorrection by the pilots.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.5 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilots' alignment during the final approach. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control and stability throughout the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 80°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the aircraft's stable and controlled descent.
The total landing distance was 1,942 meters, which is 69% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft landed safely and within the designated landing area, despite the slight deviations in touchdown point and runway alignment. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilots demonstrated good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases.
