Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 135 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 156 kt against a rotation target of 135 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 135 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 11 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 11 ft down to touchdown.
Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 11 ft to touchdown.
See Arrival Landing
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 1,921 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,921 m of the 3,701 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 698 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 22L at EBLG Liège Airport, with a takeoff distance of 946 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 156 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 31°C, a wind speed of 2 knots at 130°, with no crosswind or headwind.
As the aircraft climbed out of EBLG Liège Airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport in Grâce-Hollogne, Wallonia, Belgium. The climb took 17 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,656 feet above sea level to 38,591 feet above sea level, an increase of 36,936 feet. This climb covered a distance of 85 nautical miles. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Schwall, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. This cruise phase lasted for 47 minutes and covered a distance of 391 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 2 miles north of Senica, Trnava, Slovakia. The descent took 22 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 39,180 feet above sea level to 1,693 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,487 feet. This descent covered a distance of 113 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 31R at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport was made from the southeast, heading 312.0°, at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,231 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 31R was successful, with a touchdown point located 291 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was slightly faster than the target speed. However, the touchdown rate was good at -163 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°C, a wind speed of 3 knots at 90°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking approximately 4 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 597 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 94 minutes. The aircraft used 9,373 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at LHBP Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south east, heading 312.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,231 feet above ground level (agl).
The final approach to runway 31R was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading and altitude. The threshold height at 59 feet agl was slightly above the target, but this did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing. The threshold speed was good, at 137 knots, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 291 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 132 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -163 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill in aligning the aircraft with the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 3 knots at 90°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 2 knots, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 1,849 meters was 50% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was executed with a high degree of precision and control, demonstrating the pilot's skill and experience in handling the Boeing 777-200ER aircraft. The score of 92.1% reflects the high level of proficiency displayed during the landing.
