Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 131 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 157 kt, 26 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 131 kt at liftoff

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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,971 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,971 m of the 2,996 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 527 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 16 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 01R at Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, Thailand. The takeoff distance was 860 meters, which accounted for 21% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots at a direction of 310 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead Suvarnabhumi Airport and rising from an altitude of 1,081 feet above sea level to 7,241 feet above sea level, an increase of 6,159 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 8 miles east of Minburi, a suburb of Bangkok, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 7,946 feet above sea level to 39,960 feet above sea level, an increase of 32,014 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 63 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed 13 miles northeast of Bang Chong, a town in the Phetchaburi Province, and lasted for 32 minutes, covering a distance of 201 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 17 miles east of Lang Suan, a town in the Chumphon Province. The descent from 39,959 feet above sea level to 1,259 feet above sea level, a decrease of 38,699 feet in 27 minutes, covered a distance of 124 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 09 at Phuket International Airport was made from the west, heading 84.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,196 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 09 at Phuket International Airport was successful, with a touchdown point 112 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 134 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -142 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 4 knots at a direction of 70 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 3 knots.
The total landing distance was 1,891 meters, which accounted for 63% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 414 nautical miles, taking a total of 91 minutes, and the aircraft used 8,280 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at VTSP Phuket International Airport, achieving a score of 99.1%. The final approach to runway 09 was conducted from the west, with a heading of 84.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,196 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being satisfactory. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 134 knots. The touchdown point was located 112 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 129 knots was also a bit faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -142 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 70°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 1,891 meters was 63% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well under control during the landing and rollout phases. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good handling and control characteristics.
