MY FS FLIGHTS
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 892 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Fly a steeper descent on final so you cross the threshold at 50 ft agl instead of 59 ft agl.
What happened: The aircraft crossed the threshold at 59 ft agl against a 50 ft agl target, well above the normal profile. The touchdown point was also long at 894 m against a 457 m target, a pattern often seen after high threshold crossings.
Watch for: Radio altimeter against the 50 ft threshold crossing target on short final.
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 1,980 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,980 m of the 2,864 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 894 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
A Boeing 777-300 departed from runway 16R at RJAA Narita International Airport, located in Narita, Japan, with a takeoff distance of 2,093 meters, which was 50% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 201 knots, with a local temperature of 14°C and a headwind of 2 knots. Following a smooth departure, the aircraft began its enroute climb, ascending from 1,106 feet above sea level to 30,999 feet in 18 minutes, covering a distance of 133 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 30,999 feet for 71 minutes, covering 632 nautical miles. This was followed by a series of climbs and level cruises, with the aircraft ascending to higher altitudes and then maintaining those altitudes for extended periods. Notably, the aircraft climbed from 31,093 feet to 32,886 feet in 2 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles, and then entered a level cruise phase that lasted 250 minutes, covering 2,239 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb and cruise, eventually beginning its descent into KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport.
The final approach to runway 08R at KIAH was made from the west, with the aircraft descending from 36,861 feet to 1,388 feet in 24 minutes, covering 129 nautical miles. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 136 knots and a touchdown rate of -140 feet per minute. The aircraft landed 480 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a runway touchdown position that was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,902 meters, which was 66% of the runway length. Following a short taxiing period, the aircraft arrived at the parking area, having completed a total flight distance of 6,046 nautical miles in 712 minutes, using 97,817 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300 touched down on runway 08R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, with a threshold speed of 145 kt, meeting the target. The aircraft's approach quality was satisfactory, with a slight deviation in threshold height, being 59 ft agl, which was slightly above the target. The touchdown point was located 480 m beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slightly long touchdown.
The touchdown characteristics were good, with a touchdown speed of 136 kt and a smooth touchdown rate of -140 fpm. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 24 °C and a wind of 6 kt at 140 °, contributed to a relatively calm environment for the landing. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 5 kt and 4 kt respectively.
The total landing distance of 1,902 m was 66% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a consistent path along the centreline. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 91.3%.
