Smooth the climb
Pull to 15 degrees at one rate and you get a clean liftoff, pull to the same 15 degrees at twice the rate and you get an overshoot, a push, and an oscillation through the first few hundred feet. The type-general rule of thumb is a rotation rate of about 2 to 3 degrees per second, which means roughly five to seven seconds from starting the pull to reaching the initial climb attitude of around 15 degrees nose-up. Count it out loud during your next takeoff and you will almost certainly discover you have been rotating in two seconds flat.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,191 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 353 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a Boeing 777-300 aircraft taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LPPD João Paulo II Airport, taking approximately 3 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 1,102 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 174 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a wind speed of 16 knots at 191 degrees. The crosswind was 15 knots, while the headwind was 3 knots. The enroute climb started over Ponta Delgada in the Azores, Portugal, where the aircraft ascended from 1,098 feet above sea level to 36,592 feet, an increase of 35,494 feet in 17 minutes, covering a distance of 130 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise began at a latitude of 38.0767148 and a longitude of -22.9300894, lasting 45 minutes and covering 400 nautical miles. The aircraft then initiated another climb at a latitude of 40.9635235 and a longitude of -15.1137878, ascending from 37,026 feet to 37,808 feet in 2 minutes, covering 14 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise resumed at a latitude of 41.0984484 and a longitude of -14.8312141, lasting 126 minutes and covering 949 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent over Rumillies in Wallonia, Belgium, descending from 38,238 feet to 2,928 feet in 21 minutes, covering 105 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started again over Abbenes in the Provincie Noord-Holland, The Netherlands, lasting 10 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then initiated its final descent over Buitenkaag in the Provincie Noord-Holland, The Netherlands, descending from 1,988 feet to 1,255 feet in 2 minutes, covering 3 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 06 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was made from the southwest, heading 58.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,256 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 06, which had a length of 3,191 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 136 knots. The touchdown distance was 352 meters, and the touchdown speed was 131 knots, both of which were good. The touchdown rate was also good at -156 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 6 knots at 100 degrees. The crosswind was 4 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,353 meters, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,610 nautical miles, taking 233 minutes, and the aircraft used 26,282 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 777-300 aircraft successfully landed at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, achieving a score of 99.5%. The final approach to runway 06 was conducted from the south west, with a heading of 58.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 136 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 352 meters, and the touchdown speed was 131 knots, which is also considered good. Furthermore, the touchdown rate of -156 feet per minute (fpm) was within the desired range.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 3.6 meters off-centerline. This minor discrepancy did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 6 knots at 100°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots. These conditions did not appear to pose any significant challenges for the aircraft.
The total landing distance was 1,353 meters, which is approximately 42% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of conditions.
