The aircraft taxied from the parking area to runway 30 at KIAD Washington Dulles International Airport, a movement that lasted 25 minutes and covered 4 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 30, the Boeing 737-800 accelerated to a liftoff speed of 169 kt, using a takeoff distance of 5,762 ft, which represented 55 % of the runway length; local conditions were a temperature of 86 °F, wind 12 kt from 150°, a crosswind component of 8 kt and a tailwind component of 9 kt.

Climb commenced approximately 1 mile north of South Riding, Virginia, with the aircraft ascending from 1,328 ft asl to 35,507 ft asl, a gain of 34,179 ft achieved in 26 minutes while covering 168 nm.

Level cruise began 6 miles southeast of Shawsville, Virginia, and persisted for 23 minutes, during which the flight covered 162 nm at cruise altitude.

Descent was initiated about 5 miles southwest of Valley Hill, North Carolina, with the airplane descending from 35,681 ft asl to 2,280 ft asl, a loss of 33,401 ft over 27 minutes and a distance of 139 nm.

The final approach to runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport was flown from the east, on a heading of 270.0°, at 4 nm and 1,251 ft agl.

Landing on runway 26R, which is 8,987 ft long, occurred with a threshold speed slightly below target at 129 kt; touchdown was recorded at 101 ft from the threshold, at a speed of 128 kt, and a hard touchdown rate of minus 459 fpm, with runway touchdown alignment described as very good; local weather reported a temperature of 79 °F, wind 13 kt from 180°, a crosswind of 13 kt and no headwind component.

The rollout distance measured 3,413 ft, representing 38 % of the runway length, but the aircraft’s alignment after touchdown was excessively misaligned by 926 ft from the centreline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a movement that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 479 nm, required 87 (units as provided) and consumed 16,301 lbs of fuel.

Landing on runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 84.3 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 conducted the final approach to runway 26R at KATL Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport from the east, tracking a heading of 270.0° at 4 nm and 1,251 ft AGL. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 79 °F with a wind of 13 kt from 180° (13 kt crosswind, 0 kt headwind).

Threshold height was good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 129 kt. The aircraft continued the flare and touchdown sequence with a touchdown distance of 101 ft from the threshold and a touchdown speed of 128 kt, both recorded as good. Touchdown rate was hard at minus 459 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The total landing distance measured 3,413 ft, representing 38 % of the 8,987 ft runway length. Runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 926 ft from the centreline.

With a final score of 84.3 % the landing was solid overall; refining the flare to reduce the hard touchdown rate and maintaining centreline alignment during rollout will further improve performance.
