Watch for: Attitude indicator bank angle, aiming to keep it near wings-level

See Departure Climb 2Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Landing Summary

Report: Boeing 737-800 Landing at KCHS Charleston International Airport

On this occasion, the Boeing 737-800 successfully executed a safe landing at KCHS Charleston International Airport. With a final approach angle from the north-west at 147.0° and 4 nautical miles away at an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level (agl), the pilots demonstrated excellent control and precision.

Upon touching down on runway 15, the pilots achieved a smooth touch-down rate of -134 feet per minute, indicating a gradual deceleration as the aircraft made contact with the runway. Although the touch-down speed was slightly higher than desired at 137 knots, the threshold speed was well-managed at 143 knots, providing a stable foundation for the landing.

The touchdown point, 648 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, suggests a slightly long final approach, but the landing roll was well-controlled. The good threshold height and smooth touchdown rate attest to the pilots' ability to navigate the aircraft through the critical phases of flight.

The runway length of 9,011 feet provided ample space for the landing and subsequent rollout, with the total landing distance covering 76% of the available runway. The runway rollout alignment was exceptional, further emphasizing the pilots' skill and situational awareness.

Weather conditions at the airport were favorable, with a temperature of 70°F, a light wind of 2 knots at 210°, and a negligible crosswind and headwind of 1 and 2 knots respectively. These elements combined to make the landing a straightforward operation, allowing the pilots to focus on precise control and execution.

Overall, this landing demonstrates the pilots' mastery of the Boeing 737-800 and their ability to navigate complex flight scenarios with ease.
