MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive rate of climb is confirmed after liftoff.
What happened: The landing gear was never raised during the initial climb and was still down when the climb ended.
Watch for: Landing gear lever: UP promptly after confirming a positive rate of climb.
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 464 m past the target, landing at 921 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

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 2,123 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,123 m of the 3,621 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 921 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from London Heathrow Airport, the Boeing 777-300 began its journey on runway 27L, taking off with a distance of 1,792 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 192 knots, with a local temperature of 20°C and a gentle headwind of 4 knots. As it departed the UK airspace, the aircraft climbed from 985 feet above sea level to 5,624 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute climb and cruise phases of the flight were characterized by a series of ascents and descents, with the aircraft reaching a maximum altitude of 32,969 feet above sea level. The longest cruise phase lasted 164 minutes, covering a distance of 1,374 nautical miles. The aircraft made several climbs and descents, including a notable ascent from 33,620 feet to 34,990 feet in just 2 minutes, covering 14 nautical miles. The final descent phase began overhead Daliang, China, where the aircraft descended from 37,007 feet to 1,346 feet in 21 minutes, covering 118 nautical miles.
The Boeing 777-300 landed on runway 07C at Hong Kong International Airport, with a total landing distance of 2,166 meters, accounting for 60% of the runway. The touchdown point was 628 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots and a smooth touchdown rate of -116 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, but the rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 5,934 nautical miles, taking 719 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 91,188 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 07C at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the south west. The aircraft's final approach was conducted at a heading of 71.0°, 4 nautical miles from the threshold and at an altitude of 1,309 feet above ground level. Although the threshold height was slightly above the target, the approach quality was otherwise good, with a threshold speed of 140 knots, which was within the desired range.
The touchdown point was located 628 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -116 feet per minute, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.3 meters, which may require attention during future approaches. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28°C and a light wind of 3 knots from 240°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 2,166 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 88.0%, indicating a high level of proficiency.
