Straight touchdown — 4.48 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Enroute Climb — speed limits at 0 %, −1.70 points
Arrival Final 2 — GPWS warning; Approach angle 4.7 ° at 30 %, bank angle up to 11.2 ° at 78 %, −1.52 points
Departure Taxi — Taxi Lights at 0 %, peak taxi speed 33 kt at 84 %, −1.14 points

Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Arrival Final 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The aircraft in question, a Boeing 727-200, began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KBHM Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport. This taxiing process took a total of 12 minutes and covered a distance of 6 nautical miles. Upon reaching the runway, the aircraft started its departure roll on runway 36, taking off after covering a distance of 1,070 meters, which accounted for 49% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 140 knots.

As the aircraft climbed out of Birmingham, it started its enroute climb approximately 1 mile east of the town of Tarrant, Alabama. Here, it ascended from an initial altitude of 1,792 feet above sea level (asl) to 17,308 ft, a staggering increase of 15,516 ft over a period of 7 minutes, while covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. This initial climb marked the beginning of the aircraft's journey towards its destination.

Following a brief enroute level cruise that started approximately 1 mile north of Clay, Alabama, and lasted for 9 minutes, the aircraft covered a considerable distance of 53 nautical miles. However, as it continued its journey, it began its descent from the ascent, initiated approximately 6 miles north-east of Collinsville, Alabama. Over a period of 5 minutes, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 17,455 ft asl to 3,150 ft asl, covering a distance of 29 nautical miles.

The enroute climb resumed approximately 4 miles south-west of Trenton, Georgia, where the aircraft ascended from 3,346 ft asl to 3,868 ft asl, an increase of 522 ft over a period of 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. Following this brief climb, the aircraft entered another enroute level cruise that started approximately 2 miles north of Trenton and lasted for 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.

The descent then resumed, initiated approximately 3 miles west of Lookout Mountain, Georgia, where the aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,619 ft asl to 2,744 ft asl, a decrease of 874 ft over a period of 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. Another enroute level cruise then started approximately 1 mile south-west of Chattanooga, Tennessee, where the aircraft remained level, lasting for 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.

With its final approach complete, the aircraft commenced its descent to land on runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field). As it approached the runway, the aircraft, headed in the direction of 207.0 degrees, and maintained a height of 867 feet above ground level (agl). Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 122 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown point was found to be 127 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was also deemed good, with a value of -156 ft per minute.

The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 1,494 meters, accounting for 66% of the runway length. The aircraft also experienced a slight misalignment from the centerline of the runway, where it landed 4.9 meters off center. The local temperature at the time of the landing was 18 degrees Celsius.

Following the landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area, taking 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total distance covered by the aircraft during the flight was 128 nautical miles, taking a total of 40 minutes to complete. The aircraft consumed 2,470 kilograms of fuel throughout the flight.

Landing Summary

A Boeing 727-200 aircraft successfully landed at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) with a score of 95.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north at a heading of 207.0° at an altitude of 867 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles away from the runway threshold.

On reaching the final approach, the aircraft successfully landed on runway 20 with an adequate threshold height, allowing the crew to maintain complete control throughout the landing. The threshold speed of 136 knots was within the recommended range, ensuring a smooth transition from the approach to touchdown. However, the touchdown point was 127 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which could be considered a minor deviation.

The touchdown speed of 122 knots was appropriate for a Boeing 727-200 aircraft, and the touchdown rate of -156 feet per minute was within the acceptable limits, indicating a controlled descent. Although there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, it was only 4.9 meters from the centerline, which is minimal considering the overall success of the landing.

The local weather conditions consisted of a temperature of 18°C, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing process. The total landing distance of 1494 meters, which accounts for 66% of the runway length, is a considerable distance, but still within the acceptable limits.

Lastly, the runway rollout alignment was extremely good, signifying that the crew managed to maintain control post-touchdown and brought the aircraft to a stop safely and efficiently.
