Next time

Departure

Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold bank angle near zero during the initial climb, starting from 2.9°.

What happened: Bank angle was elevated during the initial climb and excess bank usually persists into the second climb segment.

Watch for: Attitude indicator, wings level with bank angle near zero degrees.

See Departure Climb 1Departure Climb 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.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport with a smooth touchdown rate of -127 fpm, indicating a well-executed approach. The aircraft's speed at touchdown was slightly above the target, at 137 kt, but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown distance of 335 m was good, considering the runway length of 1,611 m. The threshold height was also satisfactory, with the aircraft maintaining a good visual reference to the runway environment.

As the aircraft rolled out, it maintained perfect alignment with the centreline, a testament to the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 8 °C and a headwind of 7 kt, did not pose any significant challenges to the landing. The aircraft's performance was further enhanced by the absence of any crosswind component. The total landing distance of 1,561 m, which accounted for 97% of the runway length, was a good indication of the aircraft's ability to stop within a reasonable distance.

The overall performance of the landing was satisfactory, with a score of 89.7%. While there were some minor deviations from the target values, such as the slightly fast touchdown speed, the pilot's ability to maintain a smooth touchdown rate and perfect runway alignment more than made up for these minor shortcomings. The landing was a good example of a well-executed approach and touchdown, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a safe and controlled manner.
