Landing on runway 09 at RJSS Sendai Airport in the MD-88

Landing Score 98.11 %

Landing Summary

The MD-88 aircraft successfully completed a landing on runway 09 at RJSS Sendai Airport, with a final approach initiated from the west at a heading of 81.0°, 3 nautical miles from the threshold and at an altitude of 1,891 feet above ground level. The approach quality was good, with a smooth touchdown rate of -112 feet per minute achieved at a speed of 128 knots. The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 139 knots.

The aircraft touched down 46 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed that was within acceptable limits. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 6.7 meters. The local weather conditions were favourable, with a temperature of 17°C and a gentle headwind of 5 knots, which contributed to a relatively smooth landing. The total landing distance of 1,360 meters was 46% of the runway length, indicating a satisfactory performance.

The rollout phase was notable for its excellent alignment, with the aircraft maintaining a straight course along the centreline. Overall, the landing was considered a success, with a score of 98.1% reflecting the high standard of performance achieved by the crew. The slight deviations from the ideal touchdown position and threshold speed were minor and did not significantly impact the overall outcome of the landing.
