What went well

Touched down at -368 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 6.5 ft off the centreline, no bounce
1.30 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 7 %, −1.24 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown VSI was -368 fpm. at 91 %, −0.14 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

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 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KMEM Memphis International Airport on runway 36R. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 359.0° at an altitude of 1,333 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and the results showed a high level of proficiency.

The threshold height at 67 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft was slightly higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. However, the threshold speed of 147 knots was only slightly above the target, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and managed the aircraft's speed effectively. The touchdown point was 344 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance, but the touchdown speed of 144 knots was a little fast, indicating that the pilot could have applied more braking or flared the aircraft earlier to achieve a smoother touchdown.

The touchdown rate of -368 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating that the aircraft touched down with a significant amount of energy. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 68°F and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 30°.

The total landing distance of 5,090 feet was 56% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control and stability during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and proficiency in managing the aircraft's performance during the approach and landing phases.
