Landing on runway 19 at FACT Cape Town International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 82.15 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 19 at FACT Cape Town International Airport, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the north. The aircraft's descent was characterized by a good threshold speed of 139 kt, which was achieved in line with expectations. However, the threshold height at 76 ft agl was slightly above the target, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal approach profile.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it did so at a speed of 129 kt, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -234 fpm was fair, suggesting a moderate deceleration upon impact. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was not perfectly aligned with the centreline, deviating by 8.0 m. This slight misalignment was also evident during the rollout phase, where the aircraft strayed 9.1 m from the centreline.

The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a total landing distance of 2,310 m, which represented 72% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle headwind of 1 kt, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing. Despite some minor deviations from the ideal approach and rollout, the aircraft's score of 82.2% reflects a generally good performance.
