Flight Score
Departure
On the roll, make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline within 38 ft.
What happened: The takeoff roll drifted off the centreline by 38 ft, and excess bank then carried through all three climb segments. A drifted roll like this usually leads into wandering bank angle through the climb.
Watch for: Watch the heading indicator and runway centreline during the roll, and the attitude indicator for wings level through the climb.

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

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 5,768 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,768 ft of the 10,991 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 2,110 ft 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 25 minutes and covered a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777F, then departed from runway 24L at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Barcelona, Spain. The takeoff distance was 4,031 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 183 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Barcelona, it encountered local weather conditions of 85°F temperature and 8-knot headwind at 220°. The enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of the airport and reached an altitude of 32,034 feet above sea level, an increase of 30,969 feet in 14 minutes, covering a distance of 68 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 4 miles southwest of LESU Pirineus - la Seu d'Urgel Airport in La Seu d'Urgell, Pyrenees and Andorra, Spain. This phase lasted 28 minutes and covered 233 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another climb phase, this time from 31,993 feet to 35,932 feet above sea level, an increase of 3,939 feet in 3 minutes, covering 27 nautical miles.
The aircraft entered another level cruise phase, starting 2 miles northeast of Charron, France, and lasted 376 minutes, covering 2,817 nautical miles. As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its descent phase, starting 7 miles east of Disraeli, Quebec, Canada. The descent from 35,177 feet to 7,382 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,794 feet in 12 minutes, covered 74 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting overhead Saint-Barnabe-Sud, Quebec, Canada, and lasted 3 minutes, covering 11 nautical miles. The descent phase continued, starting 4 miles northeast of Saint-Amable, Quebec, Canada, and the aircraft descended from 7,209 feet to 1,392 feet above sea level, a decrease of 5,817 feet in 8 minutes, covering 22 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24R at CYUL Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport was made from the northeast, heading 223.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,278 feet above ground level. The landing on the runway was successful, with a touchdown point 726 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 132 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -140 feet per minute.
The total landing distance was 5,484 feet, which accounted for 50% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 8 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 3,264 nautical miles, taking 479 minutes, and the aircraft used 124,714 pounds of fuel.
The Boeing 777F aircraft successfully landed at Montreal / Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (CYUL) on runway 24R. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,278 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 96.7%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 132 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 139 knots. The touchdown point was located 726 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but still within a safe margin. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -140 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a gentle headwind of 6 knots from a direction of 230°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, which further contributed to the smooth landing. The total landing distance of 5,484 feet was 50% of the available runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient stopping power to safely come to a stop.
The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively to bring the aircraft to a stop. Overall, the landing was executed with precision and control, demonstrating the capabilities of the Boeing 777F aircraft and its crew.
