Flight Score
Departure
Ease back pressure in smoothly as you approach 156 kt, holding a steady rotation rate rather than snatching the controls.
What happened: On the takeoff roll the aircraft bounced before becoming fully airborne.
Watch for: Attitude indicator: a smooth, continuous pitch-up through liftoff with no secondary bounce.
See Departure Roll
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.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
At the 500 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,797 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,797 m of the 2,998 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 718 m 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 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 34R at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (KSEA). The takeoff distance was 1,441 meters, which was 40% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 163 knots, and the local weather conditions were a temperature of 8°C, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 20°.
As the aircraft climbed out of KSEA, it reached an altitude of 34,436 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,021 feet from the initial altitude of 1,415 feet. This climb took 26 minutes and covered a distance of 159 nautical miles. The enroute climb started over KSEA, and the aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 176 minutes and covered a distance of 1,431 nautical miles. This cruise phase took place 39 miles south of Ucluelet, British Columbia, Canada.
The flight then entered another climb phase, which started at a latitude of 44.9804625 and a longitude of -160.3453169. The aircraft climbed from 36,002 feet to 37,696 feet, an increase of 1,695 feet, in just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 28 nautical miles. This climb phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started at a latitude of 44.9390515 and a longitude of -161.0225327. This cruise phase lasted for 126 minutes and covered a distance of 991 nautical miles.
The flight then entered another climb phase, which started at a latitude of 43.7130076 and a longitude of 176.0506803. The aircraft climbed from 38,070 feet to 39,358 feet, an increase of 1,289 feet, in just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 29 nautical miles. This climb phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started at a latitude of 43.6477659 and a longitude of 175.3520822. This cruise phase lasted for 221 minutes and covered a distance of 1,647 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it entered a descent phase, which started 40 miles east of Kashima-shi, Ibaraki, Japan. The aircraft descended from 39,643 feet to 8,009 feet, a decrease of 31,635 feet, in just 18 minutes and covered a distance of 100 nautical miles. The flight then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles east of Chiba, Chiba-ken, Japan. This cruise phase lasted for just 6 minutes and covered a distance of 22 nautical miles.
The flight then entered another descent phase, which started 2 miles west of Ohara, Chiba-ken, Japan. The aircraft descended from 7,995 feet to 4,056 feet, a decrease of 3,939 feet, in just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 12 nautical miles. This descent phase was followed by another level cruise phase, which started 9 miles south east of Kisarazu, Chiba-ken, Japan. This cruise phase lasted for just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 11 nautical miles.
The final descent phase started 1 mile south of Kisarazu, Chiba-ken, Japan. The aircraft descended from 4,000 feet to 1,320 feet, a decrease of 2,680 feet, in just 4 minutes and covered a distance of 9 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 34R at Tokyo Haneda International Airport (
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at RJTT Tokyo Haneda International Airport on runway 34R. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 330.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,285 feet above ground level. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed of 132 knots, registering at 132 kt. However, the touchdown speed of 123 kt was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -227 feet per minute was fair, suggesting that the aircraft's descent was not excessively steep.
The touchdown point was located 300 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, but this did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 12 knots from a direction of 30°. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 6 knots, which the aircraft successfully navigated.
The total landing distance of 1,714 meters was 57% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing for a stable and controlled rollout.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
