Departure
Add power to maintain the target climb speed as you continue the climb.
What happened: Climb speed fell well below the target during the climb out, sagging during the initial climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: the target climb speed
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

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.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,590 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 335 m touchdown sits inside 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 7 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200ER, then departed from runway 13 at Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila, Philippines. The takeoff distance was 1,841 meters, which was 105% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 161 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Manila, it encountered local weather conditions of 32°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 230°. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started 1 mile south east of the airport and took the aircraft from 810 feet above sea level to 32,279 feet above sea level, an increase of 31,469 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 152 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 68 miles south east of Dinapigue Airstrip in the Cagayan Valley, Philippines, and lasted for 139 minutes, covering a distance of 1,159 nautical miles. The aircraft then underwent several enroute climbs and level cruises, each with varying altitudes and distances covered. These climbs and cruises took the aircraft through different latitudes and longitudes, including 31.1070566° N, 136.3231383° E, 31.4711303° N, 136.6710006° E, 36.0262025° N, 144.1902262° E, 36.0574017° N, 144.5195664° E, 42.4036417° N, 173.071915° E, and 42.4482215° N, 173.4580589° E.
The final enroute climb started at 42.4036417° N, 173.071915° E and took the aircraft from 36,019 feet above sea level to 37,594 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,575 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 16 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise that followed lasted for 309 minutes, covering a distance of 2,596 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from 37,417 feet above sea level to 1,513 feet above sea level, a decrease of 35,904 feet in 21 minutes, covering a distance of 106 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 34L at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport was made from the south, heading 1.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,090 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 34L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 336 meters and a touchdown speed of 117 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -209 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 16°C temperature and a wind speed of 7 knots at 359°, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 7 knots.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 5,918 nautical miles, taking 714 minutes, and the aircraft used 93,407 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (KSEA) on runway 34L. The final approach was executed from the south, with a heading of 1.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,090 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of precision, achieving a score of 99.3% for the landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the plane touched down at the correct point on the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 125 knots, coming in at 125 kt. Despite this minor deviation, the touchdown distance of 336 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 117 kt was also within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of -209 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have been brought down to the ground more smoothly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway at the moment of touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 359°. This resulted in a crosswind of 0 kt and a headwind of 7 kt, which did not pose any significant challenges for the aircraft.
The total landing distance of 1,202 meters was 46% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of precision and control. While there were some minor deviations from the target speeds and touchdown rates, the overall performance was impressive, and the aircraft was able to stop safely within the designated runway area.
