What went well

Touched down at -166 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 3.4 ft off the centreline, no bounce
1.11 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, Threshold height at 66 ft agl was above target at 75 %, −1.31 points
Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 23.0 ft left at 86 %, −0.19 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 1,975 ft at 84 %, −0.12 points

Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 23 ft off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 11 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 11 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 11 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (KMSP) on runway 35. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 350.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,246 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored 90.6%.

The aircraft's approach to the runway was satisfactory, with the threshold height being above the target at 66 feet agl. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 149 knots. This minor deviation from the target speed did not significantly impact the overall landing performance.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 568 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance. The touchdown speed of 145 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -166 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 21°F and a wind speed of 11 knots from 355°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 11 knots, which the aircraft successfully managed during the landing.

The total landing distance of 4,871 feet was 61% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the Boeing 737-900 aircraft performed well during the landing at KMSP, with a score of 90.6%. The minor deviations from the target speed and touchdown point were not significant enough to impact the overall performance, and the pilot's skill and precision were evident throughout the landing.
