Landing on runway 28R at KSFO San Francisco International Airport in the Boeing 777-200ER

Landing Score 99.38 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28R. The final approach was executed from the southeast, heading 304.0° at an altitude of 711 feet above ground level (agl) and 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was achieved at 128 knots, indicating a well-executed approach.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots and a touchdown distance of 1,443 feet. However, the touchdown rate was slightly below average at -206 feet per minute (fpm), which may be attributed to the aircraft's weight or other factors. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 13 feet from the centerline, but this did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 57°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 210°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 4,554 feet was within the expected range, accounting for 39% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 99.4%. The slight misalignment of the touchdown position and the fair touchdown rate were the only areas for improvement, but these did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
