What went well

Landed straight in a 18 kn crosswind — 2.68 m off the centreline, no bounce
Touched down at -194 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 411 m in — inside the full-score zone

What held you back

Arrival Final 2 — bank angle up to 6.5 ° at 91 %, −0.08 points

Next time

Arrival

Keep the back pressure coming through the flare so the sink does not return at 153 fpm.

What happened: The flare arrested the sink, but then the sink returned before touchdown.

Watch for: Watch the VSI in the flare and keep arrested sink from returning before touchdown at 194 fpm.

See Arrival Landing

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 aircraft in question, an RJ85, successfully landed at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport on runway 26R. The final approach was executed from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,327 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated exceptional control and precision, achieving a score of 99.8%.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 106 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed of 117 knots. The touchdown distance of 412 meters was also well within the expected range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -170 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory, suggesting a gentle and stable touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 190°. This resulted in a crosswind component of 14 knots and a headwind component of 2 knots. Despite these conditions, the aircraft's pilot successfully managed the crosswind, ensuring a stable and aligned approach.

The total landing distance of 1,099 meters was 40% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This indicates that the pilot had excellent control over the aircraft's descent and touchdown, and was able to bring the plane to a stop quickly and safely.

The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. Overall, the landing was a textbook example of precision and control, and the aircraft's pilot deserves credit for a job well done.
