Landing on runway 22 at UACC Nursultan Nazarbayev International Airport in the Boeing 737-900

Landing Score 91.24 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 began its final approach to runway 22 at UACC Nursultan Nazarbayev International Airport from the north-east on a heading of 225.0° at 4 nm and 1,289 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 16 °C with wind 8 kt from 149°, including a 7 kt crosswind and a 2 kt head-wind.

At threshold the height of 63 ft agl was above the target, while the threshold speed of 150 kt was judged good. The aircraft crossed the runway threshold and the flare progressed to a touchdown distance of 375 m down the 3,498 m runway.

Touchdown occurred at a speed of 149 kt, noted as a little fast, with a heavy vertical rate of minus 637 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned, being 5.2 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 1,492 m, representing 43 % of the runway length.

Rollout alignment was described as very good, and the aircraft continued along the centreline to a safe exit after using the remaining runway.

To reduce the heavy touchdown rate, a slightly higher flare and a more gradual reduction of descent should be practiced, while maintaining the aim point about 300 m (1,000 ft) in. Fine-tuning speed control to keep touchdown speed closer to the target VREF will also help keep the landing within the optimal envelope.
