Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 168 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 188 kt, 20 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 168 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
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.
At the 500 ft gate: off the centreline.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,993 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,993 m of the 3,284 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 512 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
This flight on a Boeing 777-300 aircraft began with a taxiing process from the parking area to the runway at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, taking approximately 12 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. Departing from runway 24 at the airport, the aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 188 knots, having covered 68% of the runway's 2,185-meter length during the takeoff roll.
As the plane entered the enroute climb phase, it began at an altitude of 1,059 feet above sea level and steadily increased to 34,196 feet, a rise of 33,137 feet, over a distance of 111 nautical miles and in the span of 17 minutes. The climb initiated approximately 1 mile west of Aalsmeerderbrug, located in the province of Noord-Holland in the Netherlands. Following the climb, the aircraft entered into a cruise phase at approximately 64 miles north-west of Oost-Vlieland, which lasted for 204 minutes and covered a distance of 1,608 nautical miles.
The flight then underwent a series of climb and cruise phases. A short climb to 34,521 feet from 32,435 feet took place in 3 minutes and covered 26 nautical miles. This was followed by a second cruise phase, lasting for 203 minutes, over 26 nautical miles. The aircraft then climbed to 37,165 feet from 35,744 feet in 2 minutes and over 12 nautical miles, before entering into its last cruise phase.
As the flight prepared for its descent into Vancouver International Airport, it began its descent at an altitude of 37,784 feet and a position 8 miles south-west of Merritt in British Columbia, Canada. The descent took place in 25 minutes, covering a distance of 104 nautical miles, and ultimately resulted in a landing at an altitude of 1,299 feet. The final approach to runway 08R was made from the west at a heading of 100.0 degrees.
Landing on runway 08R at Vancouver International Airport, the aircraft's touchdown point was 105 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 135 knots and a rate of descent of -134 feet per minute. However, the touchdown speed was a little above the threshold speed. The aircraft's touchdown rate was smooth and the runway rollout alignment misaligned by 22.5 meters from the centreline.
Finally, the flight concluded with the aircraft taxiing to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 7 minutes and covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. In total, the flight covered a distance of 4,237 nautical miles and took 579 minutes to complete, using 69,992 kilograms of fuel along the way.
On the given landing of the Boeing 777-300 aircraft, the pilot achieved a respectable score of 89.8%. The aircraft began its final approach to runway 08R at CYVR Vancouver International Airport, coming from the west at a heading of 100.0° and initially 4 nautical miles away from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 105 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 135 kt, which was just a little higher than the ideal threshold speed of 140 kt. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -134 feet per minute (fpm), demonstrating a well-executed landing. The runway touchdown position was, however, misaligned by 10.5 meters from the centerline.
It's worth noting that the weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12 °C, and a crosswind of 0 kt, but a moderate headwind of 7 kt at a direction of 100°. Given these conditions, the pilot demonstrated a considerable amount of skill in bringing the aircraft safely to the ground.
The total landing distance required to come to a complete stop was 1,921 meters, which equates to 58% of the runway length, with the runway length being 3,284 meters. However, the rollout alignment was also found to be misaligned by 22.5 meters from the centerline. Despite this, the pilot's overall performance in bringing the aircraft safely to the ground, despite a slightly higher than ideal touchdown speed, warrants a score of 89.8%.
