Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 721 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to stop the drift as soon as it starts in the flare.
What happened: On the landing you drifted 17 m off the centreline, and that kind of lateral drift usually carries through to a touchdown point 18 m off centreline and into a rollout that is still skewed off the runway centreline.
Watch for: Heading indicator: track straight down the extended runway centreline through touchdown and rollout.
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. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,087 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,087 m of the 4,134 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 689 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Airbus A330-900 taxied from the parking area to runway 03 at YPPH Perth International Airport in 12 minutes, covering 3 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 03, the aircraft used 1,609 m of runway (47 % of the available length) and lifted off at 173 kt; ambient temperature was 16 °C with wind from 059° at 11 kt, including an 8 kt cross-wind component and an 8 kt head-wind component.
Climb commenced overhead YPPH, ascending from 1,017 ft asl to 36,004 ft asl - a gain of 34,987 ft - in 26 minutes while covering 175 nm.
The first cruise segment began 4 mi north-west of Leeman and continued for 268 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 2,140 nm.
Descent started 28 mi south of WIBD Pinang Kampai Airport, dropping from 35,715 ft asl to 10,787 ft asl - a loss of 24,928 ft - in 10 minutes and covering 70 nm.
A brief cruise followed 18 mi south-west of Port Dickson, lasting 2 minutes and spanning 7 nm.
The next descent began 17 mi south of Tanjung Sepat, reducing altitude from 10,463 ft asl to 8,005 ft asl - a decrease of 2,457 ft - in 3 minutes while traveling 14 nm.
A short cruise then occurred 5 mi south-west of Tanjung Sepat, lasting 3 minutes and covering 13 nm.
Subsequent descent started 2 mi south-east of Banting, falling from 7,423 ft asl to 4,792 ft asl - a loss of 2,631 ft - in 3 minutes over 12 nm.
Another cruise segment began 3 mi south-east of Pelabuhan Klang, lasting 5 minutes and encompassing 14 nm.
The final descent commenced 1 mi south of Putra Heights, descending from 4,222 ft asl to 1,310 ft asl - a reduction of 2,912 ft - in 4 minutes and covering 10 nm.
On final approach to runway 14L at WMKK Kuala Lumpur International Airport, the aircraft approached from the north-west on a heading of 146.0° at 4 nm and 1,255 ft agl.
Landing on runway 14L, whose length is 4,134 m, the aircraft touched down 273 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 134 kt; the touchdown rate was minus 208 fpm, and the aircraft was laterally displaced 16.7 m from the centreline. The total landing distance was 2,006 m (49 % of the runway) and the rollout remained misaligned by the same 16.7 m.
After rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 2,465 nm, lasted 340 minutes, and consumed 31,819 kg of fuel.
The Airbus A330-900 entered the final approach to runway 14L at WMKK Kuala Lumpur International Airport from the north-west, tracking a heading of 146.0° at 4 nm and 1,255 ft agl. Local conditions were a temperature of 32 °C, wind from 127° at 6 kt with a 2 kt crosswind component and a 5 kt head-wind component.
At the threshold the aircraft was 67 ft agl, which was above the target height, and the threshold speed was 144 kt, slightly above the target speed.
Touchdown occurred 273 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 134 kt, a little fast, and a vertical rate of -208 fpm, rated as fair. The touchdown point was significantly misaligned from the centreline by 16.7 m.
The total landing distance measured 2,006 m, representing 49 % of the 4,134 m runway length. Rollout alignment remained misaligned by 16.7 m from the centreline.
With a final score of 83.2 % the landing was solid; refining the touchdown speed to the target value and improving centreline alignment during touchdown and rollout will further enhance performance.
