Departure
Use coordinated aileron input to level the wings and hold bank angle close to wings-level during the climb.
What happened: During the initial climb, your average bank angle drifted to 3.3°.
Watch for: Attitude indicator, bank angle near wings-level
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 57 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 57 ft, 12 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,078 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,078 m of the 3,206 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 615 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 11 at LOWW Vienna International Airport. The takeoff distance was 2,513 meters, which is 72% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 192 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of -2°C, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 48°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Klein-Neusiedl in Niederoesterreich, Austria. The climb took 20 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,533 feet above sea level to 29,534 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,001 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 114 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Kappel am Krappfeld in Kaernten, Austria, and lasted for 530 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 4,160 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 85 miles north of Barreirinhas in Maranhao, Brazil. The climb took only 3 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 31,712 feet above sea level to 35,225 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,512 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 29 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 57 miles north of Humberto de Campos in Maranhao, Brazil, and lasted for 237 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 1,952 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time starting 26 miles north of Clodomira in Santiago del Estero Province, Argentina. The climb took only 2 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 35,199 feet above sea level to 36,817 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,618 feet. The distance covered during this climb was 14 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 22 miles northwest of Clodomira in Santiago del Estero Province, Argentina, and lasted for 47 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 381 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 40 miles northeast of SCNK Los Pelambres Airport Cuncumen in Region de Coquimbo, Chile. The descent took 21 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 37,033 feet above sea level to 2,842 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,192 feet. The distance covered during this descent was 113 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 17L at SCEL Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport was made from the north, heading 177.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,285 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 17L, which has a length of 3,206 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots. The touchdown point was 203 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 141 knots, which was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -264 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 32°C, with a wind speed of 16 knots at 220°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at SCEL Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport on runway 17L. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 177.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly above the target threshold speed of 148 kt, registering at 148 kt. However, the touchdown speed of 141 kt was a bit faster than desired, indicating that the pilot may have applied a bit more braking than necessary. The touchdown rate of -264 fpm was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not excessively steep.
The touchdown point was located 203 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, but this did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a wind speed of 16 kt from a direction of 220°. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 kt and a headwind of 12 kt, which the pilot successfully managed during the landing.
The total landing distance of 2,001 meters was 62% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control during the landing phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. While there were some minor deviations from the desired parameters, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance ensured a safe and controlled landing.
