The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport, showcasing a high level of precision and control. The final approach to runway 33 was initiated from the south east, with the aircraft heading 332.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,106 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with a high degree of accuracy, as evident from the subsequent landing performance.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good threshold height, indicating that the pilots maintained a stable and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 138 knots was also within the acceptable range, signifying that the pilots had properly managed the aircraft's speed during the approach. The touchdown distance of 1,183 feet was also satisfactory, as it was within the expected parameters for a safe and controlled landing.
The touchdown speed of 133 knots was also good, indicating that the pilots had successfully slowed the aircraft down to a safe speed upon touchdown. However, the touchdown rate of -245 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilots could have managed the descent more smoothly. Nevertheless, this did not significantly impact the overall landing performance.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilots' exceptional skill and control during the approach. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 57°F and a wind speed of 5 knots at 320°, were favorable for the landing. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 5 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach.
The total landing distance of 4,299 feet was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilots had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and descent rate to achieve a safe and controlled landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilots' ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing performance of the Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft at EPWA Warsaw Chopin Airport was impressive, with a high score of 98.7%. The pilots demonstrated exceptional skill and control during the approach, descent, and rollout phases, resulting in a safe and controlled landing.
