Flight Score
Departure
Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.
What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 6.1 m off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 20 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 17 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
Ground control varies with speed, full authority at walking pace, progressively reducing as groundspeed rises. The aircraft becomes twitchy at any speed, every small pedal input swings the nose, which can encourage large-amplitude leg inputs that no real aircraft would accept.

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.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 1.0° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,662 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 259 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 36L at Amsterdam Schiphol (EHAM) in 12 minutes, covering 4 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 36L, the take-off run was 1,568 m (41 % of the runway) and the aircraft lifted off at 177 kt; local weather was 24 °C with a wind of 3 kt from 089°, giving a 3 kt cross-wind and no head-wind.
The initial climb began 1 nm north-east of Vijfhuizen, climbing from 974 ft asl to 31,000 ft asl - an increase of 30,026 ft - in 17 minutes while covering 112 nm.
Level cruise commenced overhead Zutendaal, Belgium, lasting 31 minutes and extending 263 nm.
A second climb started 2 nm south-east of Leutkirch, Germany, rising from 31,243 ft asl to 32,967 ft asl - a gain of 1,724 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 13 nm.
The subsequent cruise segment began 1 nm north-west of Rettenberg, Germany, and continued for 208 minutes, traversing 1,739 nm.
A third climb was initiated 21 nm north-east of Idfu, Egypt, climbing from 32,991 ft asl to 34,771 ft asl - an increase of 1,780 ft - in 2 minutes and covering 12 nm.
The following cruise started 11 nm west of HE17 Abu Rahal Well Airport, Egypt, lasting 204 minutes and covering 1,656 nm.
A fourth climb began at latitude 2.7246581, longitude 49.8257732, raising the aircraft from 34,999 ft asl to 35,987 ft asl - a gain of 988 ft - in 2 minutes while covering 12 nm.
The next cruise segment started at latitude 2.5512167, longitude 49.9703536, lasting 54 minutes and covering 432 nm.
Descent commenced 56 nm north-west of Bird Island Airport (FSSB), Seychelles, descending from 36,002 ft asl to 726 ft asl - a loss of 35,276 ft - in 21 minutes and covering 116 nm.
During the final approach to runway 13 at Seychelles International Airport (FSIA), the aircraft descended from 1,263 ft agl to 41 ft agl in 95 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 13 was achieved with a threshold speed of 150 kt; touchdown occurred 258 m down the runway at 147 kt, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 329 fpm and a lateral deviation of 13.9 m from the centreline. Local weather was 27 °C with a wind of 6 kt from 130°, providing a 1 kt cross-wind and a 6 kt head-wind.
The total landing roll measured 1,339 m (50 % of the runway) and the rollout alignment was offset by 14.7 m from the centreline.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 4,368 nm, required 556 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 74,014 kg of fuel.
The Boeing 777-300ER received a landing score of 90.5 % and on final approach to runway 13 at FSIA Seychelles International Airport the aircraft was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope, centreline and speed all within limits; the descent from 1,263 ft AGL to 41 ft AGL was completed in 95 seconds and the approach earned points on the stabilisation gates.
During the threshold and flare phase the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 150 kt, while the touchdown distance of 258 m was judged good; touchdown speed was a little fast at 147 kt and the touchdown rate was firm at minus 329 fpm, with the touchdown point misaligned by 13.9 m from the centreline.
Touchdown occurred on runway 13, whose length is 2,662 m, with a total landing distance of 1,339 m (50 % of the runway); ambient temperature was 27 °C, wind was 6 kt from 130°, including a 1 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt headwind.
Rollout alignment was slightly off centreline, measured at 14.7 m from the centreline.
To refine the already strong performance, attention should be given to reducing the lateral deviation at touchdown and during rollout to bring the aircraft closer to the centreline, and a modest reduction in touchdown speed toward the target VREF would further optimise the flare and touchdown quality.
