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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,529 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,225 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 19 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) in Washington, Virginia, United States. The takeoff distance was 3,392 feet, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 149 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of KDCA, it encountered local weather conditions of 80°F temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 80°. The crosswind was 10 knots, while the tailwind was 1 knot. The enroute climb started overhead KDCA and continued for 15 minutes, covering a distance of 84 nautical miles and increasing the altitude from 1,069 feet above sea level to 34,941 feet above sea level, a total increase of 33,872 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 5 miles south-east of Middle Peninsula Regional Airport (KFYJ) in Shacklefords, Virginia. This phase lasted for 18 minutes and covered a distance of 145 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its descent from 35,076 feet above sea level to 2,699 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,377 feet, in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 94 nautical miles. The descent started 1 mile south-west of Moss Hill Airport (6NC9) in Kinston, North Carolina.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 4 miles south of Myrtle Beach Hardee Airpark (SC21) in Loris, South Carolina. This phase lasted for only 3 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 18 at Myrtle Beach International Airport (KMYR) was made from the north, with a heading of 168.0° and at an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.
The landing on runway 18 at KMYR was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,222 feet, which was 41% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 130 knots, and the touchdown rate was -168 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 84°F temperature and a wind speed of 8 knots at 170°, with a crosswind of 0 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.
The total landing distance was 3,934 feet, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took only 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 340 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 65 minutes. The aircraft used 7,026 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Myrtle Beach International Airport (KMYR) on runway 18, achieving a high score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 168.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 1,222 feet, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed was also good at 130 knots, and the touchdown rate was satisfactory at -168 feet per minute (fpm). However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 11 feet off the centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 8 knots from 170°. This resulted in a headwind of 8 knots, which had a minimal impact on the landing. The crosswind component was negligible at 0 knots. The total landing distance was 3,934 feet, which is 41% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft performing well in terms of speed, distance, and alignment. The slight deviation in the touchdown position was the only minor issue, but it did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
