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 8.3°, 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 speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 88 ft.
What happened: The flare began at 88 ft, 43 ft earlier than the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band
See Arrival Landing
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 1,860 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,860 m of the 3,657 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 409 m touchdown sits inside 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 18L at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. The takeoff distance was 1,184 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 166 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 130 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Aalsmeerderbrug in the Netherlands. The climb took 16 minutes and covered a distance of 110 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 968 feet above sea level to 34,765 feet.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile south of Wuppertal in Germany. This phase lasted for 202 minutes and covered a distance of 1,841 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time starting 6 miles east of Goght in Armenia. The climb took only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 30 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 35,000 feet to 36,994 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles south of Karchaghbyur in Armenia. This phase lasted for 155 minutes and covered a distance of 1,299 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 4 miles south east of Hangu in Pakistan. The descent took 20 minutes and covered a distance of 123 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 37,023 feet to 3,037 feet.
The final approach to runway 28R at OPIS Islamabad International Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 281.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,284 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 3,657 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 147 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 408 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 145 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -305 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 240 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 4 knots. The total landing distance was 1,780 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took only 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,412 nautical miles, which was covered in 410 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 49,041 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at OPIS Islamabad International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.6%. The final approach to runway 28R was conducted from the east, with a heading of 281.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,284 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 147 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 145 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -305 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the touchdown distance of 408 meters was within acceptable limits.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.1 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. However, the local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 6°C and wind speeds of 5 knots at 240°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,780 meters was 49% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. 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 touch down safely on the runway. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway alignment, which may be addressed in future training or operations to improve the overall performance of the aircraft.
