Landing on runway 12R at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport in the Boeing 737-900

Landing Score 99.51 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (KMSP) on runway 12R. The final approach was executed from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 121.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,275 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was significantly above the target speed, reaching 152 knots. This suggests that the pilots may have been attempting to slow down the aircraft more quickly than necessary, potentially due to a desire to maintain control and stability during the landing. The touchdown distance of 1,475 feet was within acceptable limits, indicating that the pilots had sufficient time to react and adjust the aircraft's descent.

However, the touchdown speed of 148 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have resulted in a slightly higher rate of descent. The rate of descent at touchdown was -162 feet per minute (fpm), which is within the acceptable range. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 63°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 70°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots. These conditions would have required the pilots to make some adjustments to the aircraft's approach and landing, but they appeared to have handled the situation well.

The total landing distance of 5,616 feet was 56% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilots had successfully controlled the aircraft's rotation and deceleration during the landing. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled and stable manner.
