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 9.8 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,998 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 498 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 737-700, then departed from runway 26 at Sanya Phoenix International Airport, ZJSY. The takeoff distance was 1,041 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 144 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 28°C temperature and a wind speed of 2 knots at 120°. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Sanya Phoenix International Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,101 feet above sea level to 38,825 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,724 feet in 41 minutes, covering a distance of 288 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began 26 miles southwest of Zhuhai Jinwan Airport, Zhuhai, China, and lasted for 175 minutes, covering a distance of 1,513 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its descent from 38,948 feet above sea level to 14,407 feet above sea level, a decrease of 24,541 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles. This was followed by a brief level cruise period of 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile, before the aircraft began its descent again from 14,407 feet above sea level to 7,851 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,556 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise period, this time lasting 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile, before starting its descent from 7,851 feet above sea level to 1,491 feet above sea level, a decrease of 6,359 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise period, lasting 2 minutes, covering 7 nautical miles, before starting its final approach to runway 34R at Tokyo Haneda International Airport, RJTT.
The final approach was made from the southeast, heading 330.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,260 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 34R, which had a length of 2,998 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 133 knots. The touchdown point was 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots and a touchdown rate of -255 feet per minute, which was fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 969 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,931 nautical miles, taking 244 minutes, and the aircraft used 10,087 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at Tokyo Haneda International Airport's runway 34R, achieving a high score of 99.6%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 330.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,260 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was well-executed, with a good threshold height and a slightly above-target threshold speed of 133 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 81 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 122 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -255 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been slowed down more efficiently during the descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 10°C and a negligible wind speed of 1 knot from the north. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more straightforward. The runway length of 2,998 meters was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance of 969 meters, which accounted for only 32% of the available runway.
The runway rollout alignment was excellent, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing the aircraft to come to a stop in a straight line. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft's crew demonstrating a high level of skill and proficiency in executing a safe and efficient landing at Tokyo Haneda International Airport.
