Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 132 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 154 kt against a rotation target of 132 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 132 kt.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Make one smooth continuous pitch input through the flare rather than chasing the runway with the elevator.
What happened: The flare was pumped, with pitch reversing direction several times on the way down instead of one smooth input.
Watch for: Watch the pitch attitude trend through the flare, aiming for a single steady rise through 2.7° with no reversals.
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 1,672 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,672 m of the 3,039 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 494 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 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 27 at East Midlands Airport (EGNX). The takeoff distance was 828 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 300 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile southwest of Castle Donington, Leicestershire, England, and reached an altitude of 23,165 feet above sea level. This represented an increase of 21,835 feet in just 8 minutes, covering a distance of 46 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise phase began overhead Syresham, Northamptonshire, England, and lasted for 30 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 202 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase started overhead Denderhoutem, Flanders, Belgium, and saw the aircraft descend from 23,179 feet to 1,864 feet above sea level. This decrease of 21,315 feet was achieved in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 59 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 22L at Liège Airport (EBLG). The approach was made from the northeast, heading 226.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,239 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 22L, which had a length of 3,039 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was above the target at 143 knots.
The touchdown point was 334 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 140 knots, which was considered fast. The touchdown rate was very hard at -532 feet per minute. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 290 degrees, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,848 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took just 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 315 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 62 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 5,974 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at EBLG Liège Airport, with a final approach score of 93.7%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north east, heading 226.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,239 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed on runway 22L, which has a length of 3,039 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, coming in at 143 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for the landing.
The touchdown point was 334 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. The touchdown speed was also reported as fast, at 140 knots. This, combined with the hard touchdown rate of -532 feet per minute, suggests that the aircraft may have been experiencing a high rate of descent during the landing. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline, by 3.3 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 290°. The crosswind and headwind components were both minimal, at 1 knot each. Despite the favorable weather conditions, the aircraft's landing performance was not ideal.
The total landing distance was 1,848 meters, which is 61% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, indicating that the aircraft may have been experiencing some difficulties during the landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed during the rollout phase of the landing.
