The flight began with a Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft taxiing from the parking to the runway, a journey that took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The plane then departed from runway 13 at New York's LaGuardia Airport (KLGA), taking off and reaching a liftoff speed of 156 knots.
The local weather at the time of departure was characterized by a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, with a moderate wind blowing at 12 knots at 160 degrees, resulting in 8 knots of crosswind and 10 knots of headwind. The plane climbed upwards and reached a cruising altitude, starting its enroute climb over the Flushing neighborhood in New York, where it gained 37,048 feet in altitude, an increase of 37,048 feet from 1,097 feet, covering a distance of 112 nautical miles within 14 minutes.
After reaching a cruising altitude, the aircraft leveled off and flew for 28 minutes, covering 380 nautical miles over the Branch Dale region in Pennsylvania. The flight then entered its enroute descent phase, starting approximately 3 miles southeast of Marvin Thiel Field in Ohio, where it descended from 37,439 feet to 3,154 feet in 20 minutes and covered a distance of 124 nautical miles.
The aircraft leveled off again, this time near Kenwood, Illinois, and maintained its altitude for just 3 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles. It then began its descent once more, this time from a cruising height of 2,822 feet to 1,536 feet over the Near South Side area in Illinois, covering 4 nautical miles within 2 minutes.
After completing its descent, the Boeing 737-MAX8 began its final approach to runway 22L at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW), descending from the north-east with a heading of 224.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 917 feet above ground level.
The flight landed smoothly on runway 22L, meeting the threshold speed of 140 knots and touchdown speed of 134 knots. The touchdown distance was short at 325 meters, with a smooth touchdown rate of -148 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 8.8 meters from the centerline, due to the moderate crosswind of 4 knots and significant headwind of 14 knots.
Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance came to 636 nautical miles, completed in 77 minutes and utilizing 4,055 kilograms of fuel.

A Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 22L, scoring 96.5% in the landing assessment. The aircraft approached the runway from the northeast, aligning with a heading of 224.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 917 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot performed well in terms of final approach, achieving a good threshold height, consistent with standard operating procedures. Additionally, the threshold speed of 140 knots was satisfactory, indicating proper aircraft control and preparation for landing. The touchdown distance of 325 meters was also within the acceptable range for an aircraft of this size and category.
During the touchdown phase, the pilot displayed smooth control, as indicated by the smooth touchdown rate of -148 feet per minute (fpm). The touchdown speed of 134 knots was also well-managed, within the expected limits for a safe landing. The pilot maintained a high level of control, leading to a satisfactory touchdown speed.
However, there was a notable deviation from the expected performance, as the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.8 meters from the centreline. This suggests some discrepancy in the pilot's alignment and positioning of the aircraft during the final approach. The situation was not catastrophic, and the pilot managed to maintain control of the aircraft.
Given the moderate crosswind component of 4 knots, the pilot encountered some wind resistance but successfully mitigated its impact. With a headwind component of 14 knots, the pilot was able to make up for some of the lost speed and reach a satisfactory touchdown speed.
Upon reaching the runway threshold, the aircraft rolled out slightly misaligned from the centreline, consistent with the initial touchdown alignment discrepancy. The overall landing performance was satisfactory, with some room for improvement in terms of alignment and positioning.
Taking into account the local weather conditions, with a moderate temperature of 21°C and a light wind at 15 knots from 240°, the pilot managed the aircraft safely and efficiently.
