Maintain the centreline
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 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 2,444 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 207 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-700 taxied from the parking area to runway 05L at MMMX Benito Juárez International Airport in 4 minutes, covering 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 05L the aircraft used 1,259 m of runway, representing 36 % of the available length, and lifted off at 138 kt; the local temperature was 19 °C.
Climb commenced 1 mile north-east of MMMX, with the airplane ascending from 8,260 ft asl to 40,982 ft asl, a gain of 32,722 ft achieved in 46 minutes while covering 351 nm.
Level cruise began 4 miles north-east of Cunduacan (Estado de Tabasco, Mexico) and continued for 231 minutes, during which 1,860 nm were flown.
Descent started 29 miles north-east of Gueiria (Estado Sucre, Venezuela), with the aircraft descending from 40,438 ft asl to 1,293 ft asl, a loss of 39,145 ft in 12 minutes and covering 70 nm.
The final approach to runway 11 at TTCP A.N.R. Robinson International Airport was executed from the west on a heading of 94.0° at 4 nm and 1,252 ft agl.
Landing on runway 11 was performed on a runway 2,444 m long; the threshold speed was 124 kt, touchdown occurred 208 m down the runway at 118 kt with a descent rate of minus 194 fpm, and the alignment was very good. Local weather reported a temperature of 29 °C, wind 3 kt from 100°, with zero crosswind and a 3 kt headwind. Total landing distance was 620 m, 25 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment was perfect as the aircraft decelerated to a stop.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.
In total the flight covered 2,288 nm, lasted 296 minutes, and consumed 11,405 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 entered the final approach to runway 11 at TTCP A.N.R. Robinson International Airport from the west on a heading of 94.0 °, 4 nm out and 1,252 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.
At threshold the aircraft encountered a good threshold height and established the required threshold speed of 124 kt. The runway length of 2,444 m provided ample margin for the landing.
Touchdown occurred 208 m down the runway at a speed of 118 kt and a vertical rate of minus 194 fpm, both recorded as good. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and the total landing distance measured 620 m, representing 25 % of the runway.
Rollout alignment was perfect. Local weather was 29 °C with wind 3 kt from 100 °, crosswind 0 kt and headwind 3 kt.
With a final score of 99.5 %, the landing was essentially flawless; maintaining the same touchdown point consistency will preserve the excellent performance demonstrated.
