The flight began with a departure roll from runway 10L at Dublin Airport, EIDW. The Boeing 737-MAX8 took off with a takeoff distance of 1,249 meters, which is 40% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 163 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 140 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 10 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile south of Swords, Leinster, Ireland. The climb was from an altitude of 1,246 feet above sea level to 28,608 feet above sea level, an increase of 27,361 feet in just 13 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 69 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise then began overhead Llangefni, Anglesey, Wales, and lasted for 91 minutes, covering a distance of 653 nautical miles.

The enroute descent started overhead Sainte-Jalle, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, France. The descent was from an altitude of 28,763 feet above sea level to 1,287 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,476 feet in just 11 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 92 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 04L at Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, LFMN, was made from the southwest, heading 45.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,265 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 04L at LFMN was made with a runway length of 2,561 meters. The threshold height at 75 feet above ground level was well above the target, and the threshold speed was good at 143 knots. However, the touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was good at 123 knots, and the touchdown rate was good at -179 feet per minute. Unfortunately, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 21 knots from a direction of 89 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 15 knots. The total landing distance was 2,107 meters, which is 82% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.3 meters from the centerline.

In conclusion, the flight was a long-haul journey that covered a total distance of 820 nautical miles, taking 118 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 4,811 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 04L at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport in the Boeing 737-MAX8

Landing Score 76.35 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at LFMN Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 45.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,265 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 04L, which has a length of 2,561 meters.

The threshold height at 75 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than desired at the point of touchdown. However, the threshold speed was satisfactory at 143 knots, demonstrating that the pilot maintained control and managed the aircraft's speed effectively. The touchdown point was located further down the runway than ideal, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway.

The touchdown speed of 123 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -179 feet per minute (fpm) was also satisfactory. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.5 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the longer-than-ideal touchdown point. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 21 knots from 89°, resulting in a crosswind of 15 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.

The total landing distance of 2,107 meters was 82% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft required a significant portion of the available runway to come to a stop. During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.3 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the initial misalignment during touchdown. Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some notable deviations from the ideal parameters, which may be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's performance.
