Flight Score
Arrival
Hold the approach aim point and let the aircraft settle onto 457 m instead of holding it off in the flare.
What happened: Touchdown point came 166 m past the target, landing at 623 m against the 457 m aim point, with threshold speed and the flare both within limits.
Watch for: Touchdown distance marker: 457 m from the threshold.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,073 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,073 m of the 3,377 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 623 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Hong Kong International Airport, the Boeing 777F began its journey with a taxiing period of 8 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles to reach the runway. The aircraft then took off from runway 25C, utilizing 2,192 meters, or 61% of the runway, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 185 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 159°.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it traversed a distance of 152 nautical miles in 22 minutes, increasing its altitude by 27,970 feet. The enroute climb phase was punctuated by several level cruise segments, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude and speed over vast expanses of ocean. Notably, the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude of 30,998 feet in just 3 minutes, covering 31 nautical miles, before resuming level cruise. The total flight distance covered during the enroute phase was 6,245 nautical miles, with the aircraft utilizing 106,210 kilograms of fuel.
As the Boeing 777F approached its destination, Los Angeles International Airport, it began its descent from 35,009 feet to 1,417 feet in 25 minutes, covering 138 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 25L was executed from the east, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway. The landing was smooth, with a touchdown speed of 137 knots and a rate of -102 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 1,997 meters, or 59% of the runway, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. After a taxiing period of 2 minutes, the aircraft came to a stop, concluding its journey of 6,609 nautical miles, which had taken a total of 752 minutes.
The Boeing 777F touched down smoothly on runway 25L at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in the landing phase. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 145 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it maintained a steady state, touching down at a speed of 137 kt, which was also within the desired parameters. The touchdown rate was particularly noteworthy, with a smooth descent of -102 fpm, indicating a high degree of control and precision.
The touchdown point was located 212 m beyond the touchdown zone, which, while not ideal, was still within the acceptable range. However, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 17 °C and a gentle headwind of 6 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. The wind direction of 260 ° also played a role in the aircraft's alignment, but the pilot's skill and experience ensured a smooth and controlled touchdown.
The total landing distance of 1,997 m, which accounted for 59% of the runway length, was a testament to the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and descent rate effectively. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a credit to the pilot's skill and experience, with a score of 98.1% reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
