Landing on runway 27 at EHAM Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in the Boeing 737-MAX8

Landing Score 80.28 %

Landing Summary

Overall, the aircraft landing score of 80.3% indicates that there are several areas that need improvement in order to achieve a higher level of efficiency and safety during landings.

During the Approach Phase, the descent path was above the glideslope limit, which can lead to potential issues with altitude and speed management. The slightly above target threshold speed of 143 knots may have contributed to the poor descent path, as it can make it difficult to maintain a stable approach. It is important for pilots to closely monitor their descent path and ensure they are maintaining the correct glidepath to avoid undue stress on the aircraft and passengers.

In the Landing Phase, the threshold height of 75 feet above ground level was well above the target, indicating a potential issue with altitude awareness during the final stages of the approach. Additionally, the very poor landing flare suggests that there was a lack of smooth and controlled transition from descent to touchdown, which can result in a hard landing and potential damage to the aircraft.

Moving on to the Touchdown Phase, while the touchdown rate of -221 ft/m was fair, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was a little fast. Excessive touchdown speed can increase the risk of hydroplaning and decrease the overall margin of safety during landing. The fact that the touchdown point was 264 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone and the runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 17.3 meters from the centerline indicates a lack of precision and alignment during the landing phase.

To improve the overall landing score, it is crucial for pilots to focus on maintaining a stable approach, closely monitoring descent path and speed during the final stages of landing, ensuring proper altitude awareness, executing a smooth and controlled landing flare, and paying attention to touchdown speed and alignment with the designated touchdown zone. Continuous training and practice can help pilots develop the necessary skills and awareness to execute safe and efficient landings. Remember, safety is always the top priority in aviation, and every landing is an opportunity to learn and improve.
