Landing on runway 04R at KBOS Logan International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 92.48 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 completed the final approach to runway 04R at KBOS Logan International Airport on a heading of 19.0° while 0 nm from the threshold and 79 ft AGL, with a temperature of 18 °C, wind 2 kt from 270°, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 1 kt tail-wind component. The aircraft’s overall landing score was 92.5 %.

At the threshold the height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was too high at 160 kt.

Touchdown occurred 77 m from the runway threshold, with a touchdown speed of 159 kt that was excessively fast, a vertical rate of -184 fpm that was good, and runway touchdown alignment that was very good.

Reduce the approach and flare speeds to bring the threshold speed within the target range and to achieve a lower touchdown speed, thereby improving energy management while preserving the already good alignment and touchdown point.
