Flight Score
Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 135 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 153 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
Begin raising the nose sooner, at 11 ft, rather than waiting until 7.4 ft.
What happened: The flare began late at 7.4 ft, below the normal band.
Watch for: Radio altimeter approaching 11 ft as the cue to start the flare.
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 1,973 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,973 m of the 3,441 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 582 m past the threshold — beyond 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 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 36R at KAUS Austin Bergstrom International Airport. The takeoff distance was 854 meters, which accounted for 31% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at 0 degrees. There was no crosswind, but a headwind of 2 knots was present. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northeast of KAUS Austin Bergstrom International Airport. The climb took 18 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,546 feet above sea level to 41,052 feet above sea level, an increase of 39,506 feet.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 1 mile southeast of Three Rivers, Texas. This phase lasted for 63 minutes and covered a distance of 471 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 7 miles southwest of Ixhuatlan de Madero, Mexico. The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 80 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 41,027 feet above sea level to 18,343 feet above sea level, a decrease of 22,684 feet.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles east of Tepeji del Rio de Ocampo, Mexico. This phase lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 15 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 1 mile southwest of Chapa de Mota, Mexico. The descent took 9 minutes and covered a distance of 33 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from 18,392 feet above sea level to 8,627 feet above sea level, a decrease of 9,765 feet.
The final approach to runway 05R at MMMX Benito Juárez International Airport was made from the southwest, with a heading of 59.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,305 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 05R, which had a length of 3,441 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 136 knots. However, the touchdown speed was a little fast at 132 knots, and the touchdown point was 174 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The total landing distance was 1,900 meters, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at 0 degrees. There was a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 2 knots.
The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 716 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 2 hours. The aircraft used 11,275 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at Benito Juárez International Airport, specifically on runway 05R. The final approach was executed from the southwest, heading 59.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,305 feet above ground level. The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 96.0%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 132 knots, which was slightly above the recommended threshold speed of 136 knots. However, the touchdown rate of -186 feet per minute was considered good, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown point was located 174 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may have been due to the aircraft's slightly fast touchdown speed.
The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.1 meters, which may have been a result of the aircraft's approach path or the pilot's decision to touch down slightly off-center. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain its direction and speed after touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 0°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind component was 2 knots, which did not significantly impact the aircraft's approach or landing.
Overall, the Boeing 777-200ER demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its landing at Benito Juárez International Airport, with a total landing distance of 1,900 meters, which was 55% of the runway length. The aircraft's performance was satisfactory, and the landing was considered safe and controlled.
