Landing on runway 22L at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 96.03 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 22L. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 235.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,242 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was recorded at 138 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe landing. However, the touchdown speed of 132 knots was slightly higher than the ideal speed, suggesting that the pilot may have applied a bit more force during the landing. The touchdown rate of -318 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled and stable touchdown.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -11°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from 260°. The crosswind component was 9 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots. These conditions presented a moderate challenge for the pilot, but the aircraft handled them well.

The total landing distance of 1,159 meters was 72% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft came to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
