The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 9,320 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,315 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The 1.79 G arrival is the firm side of smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Nashville International Airport, the aircraft began its journey on runway 20C, taking off with a distance of 4,188 feet, which accounted for 52% of the available runway. The local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 55°F and a gentle wind of 5 knots from a direction of 91°, resulting in a slight tailwind component of 1 knot. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 143 knots, marking the start of its ascent.
As the aircraft climbed from 1,575 feet above sea level to 18,834 feet, it covered a distance of 36 nautical miles in 13 minutes, achieving an impressive increase of 17,260 feet. The enroute climb phase was followed by a brief level cruise, lasting 2 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles, before the aircraft began its descent from 18,981 feet to 16,985 feet, a decrease of 1,996 feet in 3 minutes. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, this time lasting 5 minutes and covering 22 nautical miles, before initiating a climb from 17,010 feet to 28,295 feet, an increase of 11,285 feet in 9 minutes. The final descent phase saw the aircraft decrease from 28,513 feet to 1,555 feet in 28 minutes, covering a distance of 71 nautical miles.
The aircraft's final approach to runway 18R at Memphis International Airport was executed from the north, with a heading of 179.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,262 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,321 feet and a touchdown speed of 135 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The total landing distance was 3,273 feet, accounting for 35% of the available runway. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 8 minutes. The total flight distance was 184 nautical miles, with a flight time of 78 minutes and a fuel consumption of 4,060 pounds.
The aircraft touched down on runway 18R at KMEM Memphis International Airport with a good threshold height, allowing the pilot to maintain a stable approach path. The threshold speed of 140 kt was well within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown distance of 1,321 ft was consistent with the expected performance, and the touchdown speed of 135 kt was also within the desired parameters.
However, the touchdown rate of -252 fpm was slightly higher than ideal, suggesting a slightly steeper descent than intended. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 61 °F and a gentle headwind of 3 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. The crosswind component of 1 kt was minimal, further reducing the risk of deviation from the intended path.
The aircraft's rollout was characterized by perfect alignment with the runway centerline, demonstrating excellent control and coordination. The total landing distance of 3,273 ft, which accounted for 35% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was considered highly successful, with a score of 99.5% reflecting the high level of proficiency and control displayed by the pilot throughout the approach and landing phases.
