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 19°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Hold the aim point and wait for the proper flare height before you start rotating; let the runway come up to you rather than anticipating it.
What happened: The flare began early, well above the normal flare band, and touchdown followed at 800 m past the threshold, 343 m beyond the 457 m target. Starting the flare early like this usually carries the touchdown long.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against the normal flare band, then touchdown distance against 457 m.
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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 2,813 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,813 m of the 3,285 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 800 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Quatro de Fevereiro International Airport in Luanda, Angola, the Boeing 777-300 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 05, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 171 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,478 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway, was achieved in a relatively short period.
The enroute climb phase began as the aircraft departed Luanda, Angola, and continued to ascend to a cruising altitude of 27,989 feet above sea level. Over the course of the flight, the aircraft underwent multiple level cruise phases, each lasting several hours and covering significant distances. Notably, the aircraft climbed to higher altitudes on multiple occasions, including a 1,963-foot increase in altitude from 29,999 feet to 31,962 feet above sea level in just 2 minutes. The flight's total distance of 3,704 nautical miles was achieved in 496 minutes, with the aircraft consuming 70,408 kilograms of fuel.
As the aircraft approached its destination, Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport in Brasilia, Brazil, it began its final approach to runway 11R from the west. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 146 knots, and the touchdown point was 394 meters beyond the touchdown zone. Although the touchdown speed of 142 knots was slightly above the desired speed, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 11R at SBBR Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport with a threshold speed of 146 kt, meeting the required standard. The approach quality was good, with a steady descent from 1,315 ft agl to a good threshold height. The aircraft maintained a heading of 86.0° from 4 nm out, aligning perfectly with the runway centerline.
Touchdown occurred 394 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a speed of 142 kt, slightly above the ideal touchdown speed. However, the touchdown rate of -290 fpm was fair, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 25 °C and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a smooth touchdown.
The total landing distance of 2,743 m was 83% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 88.1%. While there were some minor deviations from the ideal touchdown speed and distance, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance ensured a safe and controlled landing.
