Next time

Departure

Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 179 kt.

What happened: Climb speed was 143 kt against a target of 179 kt, running 36 kt slow through the climb.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 179 kt.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrival

Start the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested.

What happened: The aircraft was flown onto the runway: the nose was barely raised and little of the sink was taken out, touching down at 286 fpm.

Watch for: Pitch attitude: rising steadily through the flare until the sink is checked.

See Arrival Landing

Between four hundred and a thousand feet you're heavy, close to the ground and still carrying flap, and speed is the margin holding all three apart. Slow here doesn't feel like anything — the aeroplane climbs, the nose is up, nothing complains — right up until a turn, a gust or a bank tightens the wing's job and the margin is already gone. The fix is rarely "fly faster", it's lowering the nose a degree and letting the speed build before the next thing you do. Pitch buys altitude, speed buys options, and at this height options are the scarcer of the two.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 04R at Chicago Midway International Airport in 9 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 04R, the aircraft used 3,593 ft of runway, representing 61 % of the available length, and lifted off at 144 kt. Ambient conditions were 72 °F with a wind of 5 kt from 050°, including a 1 kt cross-wind and a 5 kt head-wind.

The initial climb began overhead West Elsdon, Illinois, climbing from 1,562 ft asl to 35,055 ft asl, an altitude gain of 33,493 ft achieved in 18 minutes while covering 122 nm.

Level cruise commenced 2 mi north of Angola, Indiana, and persisted for 13 minutes, during which 118 nm were flown.

Descent commenced 1 mi south of Vermilion, Ohio, with the aircraft descending from 34,762 ft asl to 10,069 ft asl, a loss of 24,692 ft in 12 minutes over a distance of 84 nm.

A subsequent climb started 2 mi east of Columbiana, Ohio, raising the aircraft from 10,076 ft asl to 10,683 ft asl, an increase of 606 ft in 2 minutes while covering 6 nm.

The next cruise segment began 3 mi west of the 9OH0 Fox Run navigation point, Ohio, lasting 5 minutes and spanning 21 nm.

Descent resumed 1 mi northwest of PN43 Sainovich Airport Industry, Pennsylvania, with a reduction from 10,697 ft asl to 2,999 ft asl, a decrease of 7,698 ft in 8 minutes across 31 nm.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 commenced its final approach to runway 28L at KPIT Pittsburgh International Airport from the east on a heading of 272.0° at 4 nm and 1,711 ft agl. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the local weather was 71 °F with a wind of 2 kt from 180°, giving a 2 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind.

At threshold the aircraft maintained a speed of 148 kt, noted as slightly above the target, and the threshold height was good. The flare was executed and the aircraft continued the descent toward the runway.

Touchdown occurred 351 ft beyond the designated touchdown zone with a speed of 145 kt, described as a little fast, and a firm vertical rate of minus 312 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 13 ft from the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 4,224 ft, representing 37 % of the 11,475-ft runway.

Rollout alignment was very good, and the aircraft taxied off the runway safely.

Reduce the approach and touchdown speeds to meet the target values to allow a more precise touchdown within the zone, and aim to keep the touchdown point within the designated area to preserve runway margin. Maintaining centreline alignment within a few feet will further refine the already strong rollout performance.
