Landing on runway 07L at VHHH Hong Kong International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 90.02 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH) on runway 07L. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 71.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,289 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good approach speed, touching down at 126 knots, which is within the acceptable range.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 319 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown rate of -212 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, indicating that the aircraft could have been slowed down more efficiently during the landing roll. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 14°C and a wind speed of 6 knots from a direction of 80°. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 6 knots, which had a minimal impact on the landing. The aircraft's performance was not significantly affected by the wind conditions.

The total landing distance of 1,653 meters was 44% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the landing roll and was able to bring it to a stop in a stable and aligned manner.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 90.0%. The pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and landing, and the aircraft performed well in the given weather conditions.
