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 5.4°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 6,212 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 6,212 ft of the 12,362 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,893 ft 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 15 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 30 at KOAK San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport. The takeoff distance was 4,143 feet, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 172 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 66 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of KOAK San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport. The climb took 15 minutes and covered a distance of 90 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from an initial altitude of 1,022 feet above sea level to a final altitude of 33,792 feet.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 72 minutes and covered a distance of 563 nautical miles. The cruise phase started 5 miles northwest of Hopland, California. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from a latitude of 47.2656852 and a longitude of -129.4308605. The climb took 2 minutes and covered a distance of 13 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from an altitude of 33,878 feet to a final altitude of 35,517 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 118 minutes and covered a distance of 955 nautical miles. This phase started at a latitude of 47.4790669 and a longitude of -129.598617. The aircraft then began its descent phase, starting 27 miles northwest of PAMD Middleton Island Airport. The descent took 33 minutes and covered a distance of 127 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from an altitude of 35,160 feet to a final altitude of 1,416 feet.
The final approach to runway 07R at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport was made from the west, with the aircraft heading 90.0 degrees at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,271 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 07R, which had a length of 12,362 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 143 knots. The touchdown point was 545 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 140 knots and a touchdown rate of -256 feet per minute, which was considered fair.
The total landing distance was 5,963 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,759 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 257 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 70,527 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, achieving a score of 96.4%. The final approach to runway 07R was initiated from the west, with a heading of 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway, with a threshold speed of 143 knots being considered good. The touchdown point was located 545 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was also deemed good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, the touchdown rate of -256 feet per minute (fpm) was only considered fair. A higher touchdown rate would have been more desirable, as it would have indicated a more controlled and stable descent. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 34°F, which is relatively cold. Despite this, the aircraft performed well, and the total landing distance of 5,963 feet was only 48% of the available runway length. This indicates that the aircraft had sufficient stopping distance and was able to come to a stop within a reasonable distance.
Finally, the runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good performance in various aspects of the landing.
