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 11 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on approach to be at 135 kt by the stabilisation gate, not just by the threshold.
What happened: The approach was too fast at the stabilisation gate, crossing the threshold at 138 kt against a VREF of 135 kt.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 135 kt at the stabilisation gate.
See Arrival Approach
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 55 kt FAST on the reference speed of 135 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,898 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 345 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing Quetta International Airport, runway 31R, the Boeing 737-900 began its journey with a taxiing period of 4 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. As the aircraft reached the runway threshold, it initiated its departure roll, utilizing 2,056 meters, or 56% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 149 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 39 degrees Celsius and a headwind of 7 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from Quetta, it began its enroute climb, ascending from 6,157 feet above sea level to 36,675 feet, an increase of 30,517 feet, in 42 minutes, covering a distance of 337 nautical miles. The climb phase concluded 1 mile northwest of Quetta, marking the beginning of the enroute level cruise. This phase lasted for 210 minutes, during which the aircraft covered a distance of 1,660 nautical miles. The cruise phase ended 30 miles north of Ban Houayxay, Laos, where the aircraft initiated its enroute descent, decreasing from 37,005 feet to 2,256 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 120 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 23 at Luang Phabang International Airport was initiated from the northeast, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 229.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,242 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed of 138 knots, touchdown distance of 342 meters, and touchdown speed of 132 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -288 feet per minute, with the runway touchdown position slightly misaligned by 4.8 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 901 meters, or 36% of the runway. Following a taxiing period of less than 1 minute, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, concluding its journey of 2,125 nautical miles, which took 277 minutes and utilized 13,131 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-900 touched down on runway 23 at VLLB Luang Phabang International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the crew to maintain a stable approach. The threshold speed of 138 kt was within the acceptable range, indicating a well-executed approach. The aircraft's descent was controlled, with a touchdown distance of 342 m, which was within the expected parameters.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 132 kt, and the rate of descent was -288 fpm, which was slightly higher than ideal but still within acceptable limits. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.8 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 °C and a calm wind, contributed to a stable and predictable landing environment.
The total landing distance of 901 m was 36% of the runway length, which is within the expected range for a Boeing 737-900. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the crew maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was scored 98.3%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and adherence to standard operating procedures.
