Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 12°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 1,772 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,772 m of the 2,483 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 500 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with the Boeing 777-300 taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, taking approximately 4 minutes to cover a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 09, with a takeoff distance of 879 meters, which was 26% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 163 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -0°C, with a wind speed of 8 knots at a direction of 73°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile east of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, rising from an altitude of 986 feet above sea level to 35,001 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,015 feet, in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 94 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Denderhoutem, Belgium, and lasted for 24 minutes, covering a distance of 186 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 1 mile northwest of Verneuil-sur-Avre, France, rising from 34,999 feet to 36,713 feet, an increase of 1,714 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 1 mile east of Soligny-la-Trappe, France, and lasted for 137 minutes, covering a distance of 1,118 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent 92 miles northeast of Porto Santo Airport, Madeira, Portugal. The descent from 36,436 feet to 1,470 feet, a decrease of 34,966 feet, took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 23 at Madeira International Airport Cristiano Ronaldo was made from the northeast, heading 225.0°, at an altitude of 1,292 feet above ground level and 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 23 was successful, with a touchdown point 92 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 141 knots, which was slightly fast, and the touchdown rate was fair at -256 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 characterized by a temperature of 18°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 150°, resulting in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,700 meters, which was 68% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,538 nautical miles, taking a total of 205 minutes, and the aircraft used 24,531 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at LPMA Madeira International Airport Cristiano Ronaldo, achieving a high score of 99.4%. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, heading 225.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,292 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with the touchdown point located 92 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. Although the touchdown speed of 141 knots was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 146 knots, it was still within a safe range. The touchdown rate of -256 feet per minute was considered fair, indicating a relatively smooth descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.6 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. However, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 150°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 1,700 meters was 68% of the runway length, which is a relatively efficient use of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent during the landing phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop within a safe distance from the runway threshold.
