The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 727-200, then departed from runway 04L at KEWR Newark Liberty International Airport. The takeoff distance was 3,773 feet, which accounted for 54% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 140 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 15 knots at 330°. The crosswind was 12 knots, and the headwind was 8 knots. After departing from KEWR, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 24 nautical miles, with the aircraft ascending from 1,025 feet above sea level to 17,779 feet above sea level, an increase of 16,754 feet.
Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started overhead Suffern, New York. This phase lasted for 16 minutes and covered a distance of 108 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started overhead KLZD Danielson Airport in Connecticut. The descent took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 49 nautical miles, with the aircraft descending from 17,659 feet above sea level to 1,139 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,520 feet.
The final approach to runway 04R at KBOS Logan International Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading at 19.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,098 feet above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which had a length of 7,641 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 134 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 1,180 feet, and the touchdown speed was 126 knots, which was also good. However, the touchdown rate was hard at -409 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, but the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 50°F and a wind speed of 12 knots at 294°, with a crosswind of 12 knots and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 3,691 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway length.

The Boeing 727-200 aircraft successfully landed at KBOS Logan International Airport on runway 04R, achieving a score of 95.9%. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 19.0° at 2 nautical miles and 1,098 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 133 kt, coming in at 134 kt. This minor deviation from the target speed did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The touchdown distance of 1,180 ft was also within acceptable limits, indicating that the aircraft's descent and approach were well-managed.
The touchdown speed of 126 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -409 fpm was slightly hard, but not excessively so. A hard touchdown rate can be a concern, as it may indicate that the aircraft's wheels touched down with a significant amount of force, potentially causing damage to the landing gear or other components. However, in this case, the touchdown rate was not severe enough to warrant further investigation.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing. The aircraft's wheels touched down on the runway centerline, indicating that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway during the final approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 50°F and a wind speed of 12 kt from 294°. The crosswind component was 12 kt, while the headwind component was only 1 kt. These conditions were favorable for the landing, and the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft throughout the approach and touchdown.
The total landing distance of 3,691 ft was 48% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 ft from the centerline. This minor deviation from the centerline may have been due to a slight overcorrection by the pilot during the rollout phase, but it did not significantly impact the overall safety of the landing.
Overall, the Boeing 727-200 aircraft performed well during the landing at KBOS Logan International Airport, achieving a score of 95.9%. While there were some minor deviations from the target speeds and alignment, the pilot successfully managed the aircraft throughout the approach and touchdown, ensuring a safe and controlled landing.
