The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at PMDY Henderson Field, achieving a score of 99.5%. The final approach to runway 24 was conducted from the east, with a heading of 249.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,105 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 130 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 225 meters, and the touchdown speed was 124 knots, which is also considered good. The most impressive aspect of the landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -97 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates a smooth and controlled descent, minimizing the impact on the aircraft and the runway.
However, there was a slight deviation in the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 4.0 meters off-centerline. This may be attributed to the crosswind component, which was 4 knots, and the headwind, which was also 4 knots. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 21°C and a wind speed of 6 knots at 200°.
The total landing distance was 653 meters, which is 28% of the runway length. This is a relatively short distance, indicating a well-executed landing. 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, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop within a short distance. The slight deviation in the touchdown position and the short landing distance are minor issues that can be addressed in future landings.
