Top opportunity

Monitor your speed

Enroute Climb

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

During the departure roll on runway 04R, the aircraft accelerated to a takeoff distance of 952 m, representing 53 % of the runway length, and lifted off at 149 kt. Ambient conditions were 25 °C with a wind of 13 kt from 060°, including a 4 kt crosswind component and a 12 kt headwind.

Climb commenced overhead West Elsdon, Illinois, with the aircraft ascending from 1,517 ft asl to 37,885 ft asl, a gain of 36,368 ft achieved in 21 minutes while covering 151 nm.

The level cruise segment began 1 mile west of 55IS Glatthaar Airport, Grandview, Illinois, and persisted for 33 minutes, during which the aircraft traversed 273 nm.

Descent was initiated 4 miles north-east of TN67 Myers-Smith Airport, Estill Springs, Tennessee, with a reduction from 37,997 ft asl to 2,232 ft asl, a loss of 35,765 ft over 27 minutes and a distance of 156 nm.

Final approach to runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport was conducted from the east, on a heading of 270.0°, at 4 nm and 1,180 ft agl.

Landing on runway 26R, which is 2,739 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 145 kt (slightly above target). Touchdown was recorded 261 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 138 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 274 fpm and very good alignment. Local weather at the time was 28 °C with a wind of 9 kt from 130°, a 6 kt crosswind component and a 7 kt tailwind. The total landing distance measured 1,848 m, equivalent to 67 % of the runway.

Runway rollout proceeded with very good alignment, completing the deceleration phase after the measured landing distance.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 9 minutes, covering 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 589 nm, required 103 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 3,918 kg of fuel.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 established the final approach to runway 26R at KATL from the east on a heading of 270.0° at 4 nm and 1,180 ft AGL; the approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high.

At threshold the aircraft maintained a good height and the threshold speed was slightly above target at 145 kt.

Touchdown occurred 261 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 138 kt, which was a little fast, and the vertical speed was fair at minus 274 fpm; runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The rollout used a total landing distance of 1,848 m, representing 67 % of the 2,739 m runway, and rollout alignment was very good.

To improve future performance, reduce the sink rate to achieve a stabilized approach by the 1,000 ft gate and target the published threshold speed to keep touchdown within the designated zone.

The flare tracked the target profile exactly. The aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 671 m past the threshold. Threshold speed was not the cause here - hold the aim point on the approach and let the aircraft settle rather than holding it off, and the touchdown comes back to the numbers.
