Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 147 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 164 kt, 17 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 147 kt at liftoff

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 5,030 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,030 ft of the 10,975 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,795 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777-200ER aircraft. The journey began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then departed from runway 15L at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, with a takeoff distance of 5,399 feet, which was 45% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of the airport, it encountered local weather conditions of 74°F temperature and a 2-knot wind at 60°. The enroute climb started 1 mile south of the airport, with the aircraft ascending from 1,090 feet above sea level to 35,165 feet, an increase of 34,076 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 154 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 3 miles south of 54LA Triangle J Airport in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This phase lasted 9 minutes and covered 75 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb, starting 1 mile south of KWIF Winnsboro Airport in Winnsboro, Louisiana, and ascending from 35,234 feet to 37,219 feet in 3 minutes, covering 29 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles southeast of 9LS5 Red Beard Dusting Service Airport in Tallulah, Louisiana. This phase lasted 197 minutes and covered 1,601 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb, starting 33 miles northwest of CWSA Sable Island in Sable Island, Nova Scotia, Canada, and ascending from 37,360 feet to 39,354 feet in 3 minutes, covering 30 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 40 miles north of CSB2 Sable Island Landing Strip in Sable Island, Nova Scotia, Canada. This phase lasted 206 minutes and covered 1,752 nautical miles. The aircraft continued to climb, starting at a specific latitude and longitude, and ascending from 39,717 feet to 41,090 feet in 2 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting at a specific latitude and longitude, and lasting 187 minutes, covering 485 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent, starting overhead Dawlish in Devon, England, and descending from 41,589 feet to 3,021 feet in 30 minutes, covering 138 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting overhead Brixton in Greater London, England, and lasting 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, starting 2 miles northwest of Earlsfield in Greater London, England, and descending from 2,581 feet to 1,494 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles.
The aircraft then made a final approach to runway 27L at EGLL London Heathrow Airport from the east, heading 269.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,388 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 507 feet beyond the touchdown zone, a touchdown speed of 120 knots, and a touchdown rate of -176 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centerline.
The total landing distance was 4,842 feet, which was 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 4,294 nautical miles, taking 553 minutes, and the aircraft used 123
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at London Heathrow Airport's runway 27L, achieving a high score of 96.6%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 269.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,388 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 130 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 507 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 120 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also within acceptable limits at -176 feet per minute (fpm). However, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, deviating by 17 feet from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 350°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind. The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 4,842 feet, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
