Landing Score 99.97 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at KSNA John Wayne Orange County International Airport, demonstrating exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The final approach to runway 20R was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft heading 208.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,146 feet above ground level (agl).

The pilot's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed descent and alignment with the runway. The threshold speed of 142 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed and control its descent. Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 180 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance considering the runway length of 5,699 feet.

The touchdown speed of 134 knots was also within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -115 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a controlled and gentle touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's exceptional skills in aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 132°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind component was zero. These conditions contributed to a relatively straightforward landing, with the pilot able to focus on executing a precise and controlled touchdown.

The total landing distance of 3,642 feet was 64% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot was able to manage the aircraft's speed and control its descent effectively, resulting in a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, this landing was a textbook example of exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed, control its descent, and maintain alignment with the runway centerline resulted in a smooth and controlled touchdown, with a short landing distance and perfect runway rollout alignment.
