Threshold crossed at 33 ft and 150 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 0.37 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Firm touchdown — 305 fpm, −0.50 points across the landing and the touchdown
  • Arrival Touchdown · sink rate 305 fpm−0.38
  • Arrival Landing · flare: the descent was not taken out−0.12
  • Arrival Touchdown · 1.28 G at contact−0.01

Next time

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Speed and pitch

From brake release to the end of the climb, against time, then the takeoff point by point.

Rotated at 151 kt, on the 149 kt target, and lifted off at 158 kt 2.7 s later, the nose coming up at 3.5° a second. Climb 3 held close to its 183 kt target, at 185 kt on average.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 904 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,221 m of runway left; gear up at 60 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,090 fpm on average to 904 ft.

How to read this

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Plan view the roll down the 3,211 m runway.

Rolled from 88 m in, drifted right of the centreline, 3.3 m at the widest, and lifted off 3.5 m right, in 5 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 52 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

The stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to the threshold.

How to read this

Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.

The approach to KORD 27C

The final from 4 nm, with the stabilisation gates on it.

Profile height against the 3° glideslope, with its 1° band in green.

Inside the glideslope band from 4 nm to the threshold, never more than 30 ft below the slope.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 35 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 21 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +7 kt and +10 kt on the approach speed of 141 kt.

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The flare held the target profile well. The aircraft was flown onto the runway - pitch changed 1.0° and the descent was barely arrested. Touchdown was 391 m past the threshold. Start the flare with progressive back pressure rather than one pull, and keep it coming.

The crosswind

Calm: nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, wings level.

How to read this

The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. These are the nose against the direction you were actually moving, and the wings, at the moment of touchdown. Shown for reading; not marked.

The stop

From 147 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 34 s, an average deceleration of 0.18 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

Side view — the last 1,770 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 33 ft, 17 ft below the 50 ft target; began the flare at 30 ft. Touched down 391 m in, 87 m past the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,770 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 660 fpm at the flare to 300 fpm at touchdown. The nose came up 0.9° on the way down.

How to read this

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

Touched down on the centreline, and stayed within 1.5 m of it down the rollout.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 taxied from the parking area for 6 minutes, covering 2 nm, and entered the departure roll on runway 08R at KMIA Miami International Airport. Takeoff was performed using 1,696 m of runway (53 % of runway). Rotation occurred at 151 kt. Local weather was 26 °C with wind 6 kt from 010°, giving a 6 kt cross-wind and a 1 kt head-wind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 23 seconds, averaging 2,185 fpm and reaching 187 kt at the top of the segment. The climb continued from 991 ft asl to 35,913 ft asl in 19 minutes, covering 120 nm, beginning 1 mile south-west of Brownsville. Cruise was level at 36,000 ft asl for 122 minutes, covering 860 nm, beginning 4 miles west of Placid Lakes. Descent from 36,002 ft asl to 1,955 ft asl took 27 minutes, covering 130 nm, beginning 4 miles north of Wabash.

Final approach to runway 27C at KORD Chicago O’Hare International Airport began with a descent from 1,339 ft agl to 61 ft agl in 95 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. Configuration was landing gear down at 2,896 ft agl at 182 kt and final flap position 7 at 2,230 ft agl at 169 kt.

Landing was made on runway 27C (runway length 3,530 m). The threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 150 kt. The flare was described as perfect. Touchdown occurred 391 m down the runway at 147 kt, a little fast, with a firm touchdown rate of minus 305 fpm and perfect runway-touchdown alignment. No bounce occurred. Total landing distance was 1,687 m (48 % of runway) and rollout alignment was perfect.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area for 7 minutes, covering 2 nm. The total flight covered 1,121 nm in 184 minutes and used 908 kg of fuel.
