Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 462 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the attitude instead of letting the nose drop.
What happened: Sink came back after the flare had arrested it, and that pattern usually carries the touchdown long - here it landed at 843 m against the 457 m aim point.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a steady, shallow rate through the flare with no renewed sink before touchdown
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,870 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,870 m of the 3,282 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 843 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight departed from Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila, Philippines, where it rolled out onto runway 24 and took off into a local temperature of 31 °C and a wind of 3 kt at 173 °. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 189 kt, using 53% of the 1,818 m runway available for takeoff.
As the flight progressed, it entered a series of enroute climbs and level cruises. The first enroute climb began 1 mile southwest of the departure airport and saw the aircraft ascend from 1,010 ft to 32,435 ft in 19 minutes, covering 131 nm. This was followed by a 171-minute level cruise over Calatrava, Philippines, during which the aircraft covered 1,399 nm. The flight then entered a series of smaller climbs and level cruises, including a 2-minute climb from 33,321 ft to 34,993 ft over Kokonao, Indonesia, and a 243-minute level cruise over the Indonesian island. The flight continued to climb and cruise, eventually beginning its descent into Christchurch International Airport in New Zealand.
The final approach to runway 20 at Christchurch International Airport was made from the north east, with the aircraft touching down 433 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 134 kt. The touchdown rate was fair at -201 fpm, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 1,795 m, or 55% of the 3,289 m runway. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 1 minute to cover less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 4,512 nm, and the flight used 75,939 kg of fuel over a duration of 558 minutes.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 20 at Christchurch International Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in the landing phase. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 220.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,257 feet above ground level. The final approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 145 knots, well within the acceptable range.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it touched down 433 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 134 knots. Although the touchdown rate of -201 feet per minute was slightly below the ideal, it was still considered fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 13°C and a headwind of 7 knots, also contributed to a smooth and controlled touchdown.
The aircraft's rollout was equally impressive, with perfect alignment along the centerline. The total landing distance of 1,795 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was considered to be of high quality, with a score of 93.5%. The pilot's skill and experience were evident throughout the landing phase, and the aircraft's performance was consistent with its capabilities.
