Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5.3°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering 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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed above the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,729 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,729 m of the 3,202 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 495 m touchdown sits inside 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 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 09 at East Midlands Airport (EGNX). The takeoff distance was 1,419 meters, which is 55% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 173 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 5 knots at 39 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the headwind was also 3 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Kegworth in Leicestershire, England. The climb took the aircraft from 1,269 feet above sea level to 5,981 feet, an increase of 4,711 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north of Borrowash in Derbyshire, England, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 5,987 feet to 23,247 feet above sea level, an increase of 17,260 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 52 nautical miles. The climb started overhead Turnditch in Derbyshire, England.
The enroute level cruise then resumed, starting 1 mile south of Kirkby in Knowsley, England, and lasted for 36 minutes, covering a distance of 304 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 24,643 feet to 32,072 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,430 feet in 7 minutes, covering a distance of 62 nautical miles. The climb started 98 miles northwest of Derrybeg in Ulster, Ireland.
The enroute level cruise then resumed again, starting at a latitude of 56.5965343 and a longitude of -12.0664863, and lasted for 213 minutes, covering a distance of 1,776 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb, this time from 32,002 feet to 35,427 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,425 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 31 nautical miles. The climb started 28 miles west of Churchill Falls Airport in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.
The enroute level cruise then resumed once more, starting 58 miles northeast of Labrador City in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, and lasted for 321 minutes, covering a distance of 2,205 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 10 miles east of Beaver Dam in Arizona, United States. The descent took the aircraft from 35,978 feet above sea level to 3,365 feet, a decrease of 32,613 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 82 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 26L at Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS) was made from the east, heading 270.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,238 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 75 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 140 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was fair at -260 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 3 knots at 250 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 1,644 meters, which is 51% of the runway length.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at KLAS Harry Reid International Airport on runway 26L, achieving a high score of 99.6%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,238 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 144 knots. The touchdown point was located 75 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 140 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
However, the touchdown rate of -260 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly higher-than-desired rate of descent during the final stages of the approach. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots from a direction of 250°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 1,644 meters was 51% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with the exception of the slightly higher-than-desired touchdown rate.
