Maintain the centreline
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.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,618 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,618 m of the 2,741 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 558 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 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300, then departed from runway 08R at Vancouver International Airport (CYVR). The takeoff distance was 1,828 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 178 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 10 knots at a direction of 60 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The aircraft climbed to a height of 35,428 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,366 feet from the initial altitude of 1,061 feet.
The enroute climb started over the Vancouver International Seaplane Base (CAM9) and took 18 minutes to cover a distance of 126 nautical miles. Following this, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 95 minutes and covered a distance of 794 nautical miles. This phase began 13 miles west of Oliver, British Columbia.
The aircraft then entered another climb phase, this time from 35,642 feet to 37,124 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,482 feet in just 2 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 18 nautical miles and started 9 miles southwest of Glenboro Airport (CJJ2) in Manitoba. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 94 minutes and covered a distance of 773 nautical miles. This phase began 13 miles west of Somerset Airport (CKC8) in Manitoba.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from 37,584 feet above sea level to 1,833 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,751 feet in 25 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 102 nautical miles and started 9 miles west of Hay Island Airstrip (CYOQ) in Ontario.
The final approach to runway 24L at Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) was made from the northeast, with a heading of 227.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 2,741 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 137 knots.
The touchdown point was 145 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 134 knots, which was considered good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -295 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at a direction of 260 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,540 meters, which accounted for 56% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 10.2 meters from the centerline. After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,823 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 252 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 28,547 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, specifically on runway 24L, with a score of 93.8%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north-east, heading 227.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,276 feet above ground level.
The pilot executed a good final approach, achieving a threshold speed of 137 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown point was 145 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 134 knots was satisfactory, and the touchdown rate of -295 feet per minute was fair, suggesting a relatively smooth landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 12 knots from a direction of 260°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 10 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The runway length of 2,741 meters was sufficient for the aircraft to land safely, with a total landing distance of 1,540 meters, accounting for 56% of the runway.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's rollout alignment was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 10.2 meters, indicating a minor deviation from the intended path. Despite this, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft throughout the approach and landing phases.
