Flight Score
Departure
Use smooth aileron to roll the wings level in the first climb segment, holding bank angle near wings-level instead of letting it build to 5.3°.
What happened: The wings held 5.3° of bank through the first climb segment and had drifted to 2.6° by the second - this early wing-level drift usually carries through into a larger bank excursion later in the climb.
Watch for: Watch the attitude indicator's bank pointer and keep it at wings level throughout the climb.
Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

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 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,768 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 521 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 28 at PASY Eareckson Air Station. The Boeing 737-800 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,105 meters, which was 36% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 159 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 17 knots at 16 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile west of PASY Eareckson Air Station Shemya, ascending from 1,081 feet above sea level to 37,962 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,880 feet in 41 minutes, covering a distance of 288 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise began at a latitude of 55.1080953 and a longitude of -178.8137319, lasting 84 minutes and covering 742 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 30 miles north of PAJZ Koliganek Airport Koliganek, where the aircraft descended from 38,109 feet above sea level to 1,740 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,369 feet in 10 minutes, covering a distance of 200 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise, this time starting 9 miles east of PABG Beluga Airport Beluga, lasting 5 minutes and covering 16 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07R at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport was made from the west, heading 90.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,277 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 126 knots and a touchdown rate of -124 feet per minute. The touchdown point was 105 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of -2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 39 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,272 meters, which was 34% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway, taking 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,251 nautical miles, taking 143 minutes, and the aircraft used 7,786 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, achieving a high score of 97.1%. The final approach to runway 07R was conducted from the west, with a heading of 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 136 knots. The touchdown point was located 105 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 126 knots was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -124 feet per minute (fpm).
However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft deviating 4.1 meters from the centerline. This may be attributed to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -2°C, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 39°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was also 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 1,272 meters was 34% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance. 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 reasonable distance from the runway threshold.
