Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 132 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 165 kt, 33 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 132 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
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.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline and wings not level.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,765 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,765 m of the 2,295 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 740 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 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 27 at Miami International Airport (KMIA). The takeoff distance was 1,408 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 165 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 35 degrees Celsius and winds of 8 knots at 210 degrees. The crosswind was 7 knots, and the headwind was 4 knots. After departing from Miami, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile north of Flagami, Florida. The climb took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 114 nautical miles, with the aircraft rising from 1,041 feet above sea level to 41,452 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 15 miles west of the San Andros Airport on Andros Island in the Bahamas. This cruise lasted for 3 minutes and covered 46 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 12 miles east of Andros Town, and descended from 40,960 feet to 40,404 feet in 2 minutes, covering 45 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 11 miles northwest of Fowl Cay in the Bahamas. This cruise lasted for 14 minutes and covered 681 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent again, starting 15 miles east of the San Juan Static Carrier in Puerto Rico. The descent took 17 minutes and covered 165 nautical miles, with the aircraft dropping from 40,452 feet to 1,294 feet.
The final approach to Princess Juliana International Airport (TNCM) was made from the west, heading 82.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,270 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 10, which had a length of 2,295 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 116 knots.
The touchdown point was 316 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 108 knots and a touchdown rate of -90 feet per minute, which was excellent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 34 degrees Celsius and winds of 6 knots at 149 degrees, with a crosswind of 5 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,676 meters, which accounted for 73% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,059 nautical miles, and the flight took 60 minutes, using 14,399 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at TNCM Princess Juliana International Airport, with a final approach score of 91.1%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 82.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,270 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 10, which has a length of 2,295 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 116 knots. The touchdown point was 316 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the aircraft landed slightly short of the intended spot. However, the touchdown speed of 108 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -90 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 34°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from 149°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft maintained a stable approach and landing.
The total landing distance was 1,676 meters, which is 73% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient runway remaining for a safe stop. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining aligned with the centerline throughout the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases. However, there were some minor deviations from the intended touchdown point and threshold speed, which may be addressed in future training or operations.
