Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 74 ft.

What happened: The flare began at 74 ft, 29 ft earlier than the normal band.

Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band

See Arrival Landing

Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed on runway 26R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, achieving a score of 98.7%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 270.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,358 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was found to be well above the target speed, reaching 141 knots. However, the touchdown point was 413 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 135 knots was slightly faster than desired, but the touchdown rate of -192 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 95°F and winds blowing at 8 knots from 173°. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot, which may have contributed to the slight deviation from the intended touchdown point. Despite these conditions, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway.

The total landing distance of 4,861 feet was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft maintained its alignment with the runway during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision during the final approach and touchdown phases.
