Departure
Rotate sooner, bringing the nose up at 161 kt rather than letting speed build further.
What happened: You lifted off at 183 kt against a rotation target of 161 kt, rotating late in the ground roll.
Watch for: Watch airspeed and rotate at the target of 161 kt.

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 rest of the report
The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 777-200ER aircraft. The journey began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 10 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 16R at Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport, with a takeoff distance of 1,807 meters, which was 47% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 183 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 21 knots at 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 14 knots and a headwind of 15 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile south east of Kyeemagh, ascending from 1,025 feet above sea level to 29,110 feet, an increase of 28,085 feet, in 19 minutes and covering a distance of 116 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 97 miles south east of Fingal Bay and lasted for 83 minutes, covering a distance of 700 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb 91 miles south west of Norfolk Island International Airport, ascending from 30,415 feet to 31,816 feet, an increase of 1,400 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 16 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 74 miles south west of Norfolk Island International Airport and lasted for 184 minutes, covering a distance of 1,649 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb at a specific latitude and longitude, ascending from 33,227 feet to 35,185 feet, an increase of 1,958 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 30 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise continued at a different latitude and longitude, lasting for 192 minutes and covering a distance of 1,584 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, ascending from 35,301 feet to 37,438 feet, an increase of 2,137 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed at a different latitude and longitude, lasting for 191 minutes and covering a distance of 1,619 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, ascending from 37,349 feet to 39,307 feet, an increase of 1,958 feet, in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 30 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise continued at a different latitude and longitude, lasting for 72 minutes and covering a distance of 613 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, descending from 38,769 feet to 8,538 feet, a decrease of 30,231 feet, in 17 minutes and covering a distance of 116 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise resumed 11 miles west of Pescadero, lasting for 3 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, descending from 8,203 feet to 1,286 feet, a decrease of 6,918 feet, in 6 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 28R at San Francisco International Airport was made from the south east, with a heading of 298.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,264 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 413 meters and a touchdown speed of 131 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -255 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.6 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28R. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 298.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,264 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 97.9%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 140 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed. The touchdown distance of 413 meters was also within the expected range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -255 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a more stable rate of descent.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 5.6 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 260°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which likely contributed to the smoothness of the landing.
Overall, the Boeing 777-200ER aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its landing at San Francisco International Airport, with a score of 97.9%. While there were some minor deviations in the approach and touchdown, the aircraft's performance was generally excellent, and the landing was completed safely and efficiently.
