Landing on runway 15R at KBWI Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 89.49 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 completed a final approach to Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport from 1 nm to 1 nm at 1,245 ft AGL; the approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the aircraft was off the centreline. Local weather was 81 °F with wind 3 kt from 130°, including a 1 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

During the threshold and flare the aircraft descended from 49 ft AGL to 0 ft AGL, a decrease of 49 ft achieved in 8 seconds.

Touchdown occurred at a speed of 131 kt, which was recorded as good, with a smooth vertical rate of minus 146 fpm. The touchdown point was 466 ft beyond the touchdown zone.

The rollout continued from an altitude of 147 ft ASL and covered a distance of 4,989 ft.

Improving centreline alignment on final approach and targeting the touchdown zone more precisely will address the primary deviations noted, helping to raise the overall score from the current 77.2 %.
