Landing on runway 31L at KPSP Palm Springs International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 87.5 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 31L at KPSP Palm Springs International Airport, concluding a final approach from the south east. The aircraft was established on the localizer at 4 nm and 1,259 ft above ground level, heading 322.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 133 kt, within the acceptable range.

However, the touchdown characteristics were less than ideal, with the aircraft using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed of 108 kt was good, but the touchdown rate of -680 fpm was heavy, indicating a possible hard landing. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.9 m from the centreline, which could have contributed to the long rollout distance. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 44 °C and a tailwind of 8 kt, may have also played a role in the aircraft's performance.

The total landing distance of 1,890 m was 112% of the runway length, indicating a longer than expected rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 12.4 m from the centreline, which could have been a result of the initial touchdown position. Overall, the landing performance scored 86.5%, with room for improvement in terms of touchdown rate and centreline alignment.
