MY FS FLIGHTS
Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 7 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 16 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.
What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 16 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 16 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

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 2,740 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 706 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Narita International Airport, the Boeing 777-200ER began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 11 minutes and covered 5 nautical miles. As it reached the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 34L, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 169 knots. The takeoff distance was 1,628 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, a wind speed of 4 knots from 329°, and a crosswind component of 0 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to cruising altitude, it first leveled off at 34,503 feet above sea level, having ascended 33,444 feet in 27 minutes and covered 211 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a prolonged level cruise phase, lasting 204 minutes and covering 1,763 nautical miles, before initiating a second climb phase to 36,676 feet above sea level. The aircraft continued to cruise at this altitude for 272 minutes, covering 2,398 nautical miles. Further climbs and descents took place as the aircraft traversed the Pacific Ocean and entered the continental United States, with the final descent initiated 1 mile north-west of the TX23 FLG Gliderport Briggs. The aircraft then leveled off at 6,500 feet above sea level before descending further to 1,379 feet above sea level.
The Boeing 777-200ER finally began its final approach to runway 26R at George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, aligning itself with the runway from the east. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 134 knots and a touchdown speed of 126 knots, resulting in a touchdown point 292 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The total landing distance was 1,390 meters, accounting for 51% of the runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 4 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 6,052 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 731 minutes and a fuel consumption of 82,429 kilograms.
The Boeing 777-200ER touched down on runway 26R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, characterized by a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft's threshold height was good, allowing for a smooth transition from the approach to the landing phase. The threshold speed of 134 kt was also well-managed, indicating a high degree of pilot proficiency.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it exhibited good touchdown characteristics, with a speed of 126 kt and a touchdown rate of -175 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating a high level of precision and control. The touchdown point was located 292 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, while not ideal, was still within acceptable parameters. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a gentle wind of 4 kt at 160 °, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by perfect alignment, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway. The total landing distance of 1,390 m, which accounted for 51% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 96.6% reflecting the high level of pilot proficiency and the aircraft's performance.
