The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 7,760 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,057 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport, the Boeing 737 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took approximately 9 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. With a local temperature of 80°F and a gentle headwind of 3 knots, the aircraft took off from runway 28R, covering a distance of 3,732 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 137 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it ascended from 960 feet above sea level to 39,434 feet, a vertical increase of 38,473 feet, in just 21 minutes and covering 135 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase was followed by a series of level cruises, with the aircraft maintaining a steady altitude for various periods, including a 7-minute cruise at 39,434 feet, covering 52 nautical miles. The aircraft also underwent several descent phases, including a 2-minute descent from 39,999 feet to 39,409 feet, a decrease of 590 feet, in 2 minutes and covering 12 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 8 miles west of Valley Bend, West Virginia, where the aircraft descended from 39,998 feet to 2,367 feet, a decrease of 37,631 feet, in 25 minutes and covering 125 nautical miles.
The Boeing 737 finally began its approach to runway 32 at Pittsburgh International Airport, descending from 2,367 feet to touch down on the runway, which was 7,764 feet long. The touchdown speed was 131 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -117 feet per minute. The total landing distance was 3,754 feet, which accounted for 48% of the runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, a process that took 10 minutes and covered 2 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 904 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 12,098 pounds of fuel during the journey, which took a total of 144 minutes.
The Boeing 737 touched down smoothly on runway 32 at KPIT Pittsburgh International Airport, showcasing exceptional approach quality. The aircraft descended from 1,573 feet above ground level (agl) at 4 nautical miles from the threshold, aligning itself with the runway heading of 317.0°. The approach was characterized by a stable and controlled descent, culminating in a good threshold height.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was well-managed, reaching 131 knots, which was within the acceptable threshold speed range of 135 knots. The touchdown distance of 1,067 feet was also satisfactory, considering the runway length of 7,764 feet. The touchdown rate of -117 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a well-executed landing. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase.
The total landing distance of 3,754 feet, accounting for 48% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 60°F and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a stable and controlled landing. Overall, the landing was scored 99.4%, reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot.
