Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 179 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 156 kt against a target of 179 kt, running 23 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 179 kt.
Arrival
Reduce power earlier on final to bring threshold speed back to 144 kt.
What happened: You crossed the threshold at 151 kt against a target of 144 kt, and touchdown ended up well past the normal point. Carrying excess threshold speed usually carries the touchdown long as the aircraft floats before settling.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator, targeting 144 kt at the threshold.
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.

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 7,136 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 1,943 ft past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Newark Liberty International Airport, the Boeing 737-800 began its journey on runway 22R, taking off with a distance of 5,049 feet, which accounted for 72% of the available runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 155 knots, with a local temperature of 72°F and a gentle headwind of 3 knots. As it departed the airport, the aircraft was subjected to a crosswind of 3 knots, but the pilots successfully navigated the conditions.
As the aircraft climbed to its enroute altitude, it began its ascent from 1,022 feet above sea level, reaching a maximum altitude of 20,979 feet in just 10 minutes. The climb phase covered a distance of 51 nautical miles, with the aircraft maintaining a steady rate of ascent. Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 10 minutes and covered a further 71 nautical miles. The descent phase began shortly after, with the aircraft losing altitude from 20,998 feet to 1,327 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 102 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached Logan International Airport, it began its final approach to runway 27, aligning itself with the runway at a height of 1,299 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a threshold speed slightly above the target, at 151 knots. The touchdown point was 575 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 144 knots and a rate of descent of -70 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was excellent, and the aircraft came to a stop with perfect runway rollout alignment. The total landing distance was 4,479 feet, accounting for 64% of the available runway length. Following the landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing its journey with a total distance of 235 nautical miles and a fuel consumption of 5,915 pounds.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 27 at KBOS Logan International Airport with a satisfactory approach quality, characterized by a stable and controlled descent. The aircraft was established on the final approach from the east, heading 257.0° at 4 nm and 1,299 ft above ground level. The approach was conducted in a good wind environment, with a 3 kt headwind and a negligible crosswind component.
The aircraft touched down 575 ft beyond the touchdown zone, with a threshold speed of 151 kt, slightly above the target value. The touchdown speed of 144 kt was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -70 fpm was excellent, indicating a controlled and smooth touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 54°F and a light wind, contributed to a stable and predictable approach.
The total landing distance of 4,479 ft was 64% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short rollout. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was scored 98.4%, reflecting a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
