Departure Taxi

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (FAKN) on runway 23. The final approach was initiated from the north east, heading 214.0° at an altitude of 806 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a good score of 98.5% throughout the landing process.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 125 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 449 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -219 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the aircraft could have maintained a more stable rate of descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft maintained its stability and control after touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 18°C and a wind speed of 0 knots from 280°. This meant that there was no crosswind or headwind to affect the aircraft's landing, making the process even smoother.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down on the runway with a good speed and distance. However, there is room for improvement in terms of maintaining a more stable rate of descent and ensuring that the aircraft remains aligned with the centerline during the final approach.
