The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,646 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,646 m of the 3,192 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 497 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Boeing 737-800 began at ZSSS Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai, China. The distance from parking to the runway was 2 nm, and the duration of the taxi and departure process was 8 minutes. The aircraft took off from runway 36L, with a takeoff distance of 1,448 m, which equated to 53% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 156 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 18°C with a 7-knot headwind.
Upon reaching cruising altitude, the enroute climb started overhead ZSSS Hongqiao, climbing from 1,067 ft to 35,035 ft. This climb took 19 minutes and covered a distance of 59 nm. The next phase of the flight was the enroute level cruise, which began 34 miles east of Huilong, China. This portion of the journey lasted 114 minutes and covered a distance of 799 nm.
The descent phase began 13 miles northwest of Shulan, China, during which the aircraft descended from 33,448 ft to 2,161 ft. The descent took 17 minutes, covered a distance of 69 nm, and saw a decrease of 31,287 ft in altitude. The final approach and landing occurred on runway 23 at ZYHB Taiping Airport, with a runway length of 3,192 m. The aircraft touched down 498 m from the threshold at a speed of 130 knots, with a vertical speed of -89 ft/min. The local weather at the time of landing was 12°C with a 4-knot headwind.
The total landing distance was 1,565 m, which was 49% of the available runway length. After landing, the distance from the runway to the parking area was less than 1 nm, and the taxi process took 5 minutes. The total flight distance was 936 nm, with a total duration of 171 minutes. The aircraft used 7,137 kg of fuel for the entire journey.
First and foremost, congratulations on achieving an impressive aircraft landing score of 99.7%! This exceptional performance is a testament to the precision and skill of the pilot involved.
Let's delve into the detailed analysis of the different phases of the landing:
During the Approach Phase, the excellent glideslope alignment indicates a smooth and controlled descent towards the runway. This is crucial for setting up a stable approach and ensures a safe landing. It shows that the pilot was able to maintain the proper angle and altitude required for a successful touchdown.
Moving on to the Landing Phase, it is commendable that the threshold height was good and the landing flare was executed perfectly. The threshold height plays a crucial role in determining the appropriate altitude for initiating the landing sequence, and a well-executed flare ensures a soft and controlled touchdown. These factors contribute significantly to the overall smoothness and safety of the landing.
In the Touchdown Phase, the excellent touchdown rate and on-target speed are indicators of a precise and well-controlled landing. A consistent touchdown rate signifies a smooth transition from the air to the ground, while maintaining the correct speed is essential for a safe and efficient landing. The fact that the touchdown point was 81 meters beyond the touchdown zone shows a good judgment of distance and timing by the pilot.
Furthermore, the runway touchdown position being 1.6 meters from the centerline demonstrates good alignment with the runway. This is essential for maintaining the aircraft's trajectory and ensuring a straight landing roll.
Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, a very good runway alignment indicates a smooth and steady roll after touchdown. This phase is crucial for safely decelerating the aircraft and taxiing off the runway.
Overall, the detailed analysis of each phase of the landing highlights the precision, skill, and professionalism exhibited during the entire landing sequence. The exceptional aircraft landing score of 99.7% is a reflection of the pilot's expertise and dedication to safe and efficient flying. Keep up the excellent work, and continue striving for excellence in all your future flights. Well done!
