Landing on runway 31L at KHOU William P Hobby Airport in the Boeing 737-700

Landing Score 84.27 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at KHOU William P Hobby Airport, but the landing was not without some notable issues. The final approach to runway 31L was initiated from the southeast, heading 314.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,273 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the touchdown point was quite far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available 6,573-foot runway length.

The touchdown speed of 121 knots was slightly above the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touching down. The touchdown rate of -241 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain some control over the aircraft's descent. However, the threshold height at 67 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on final approach.

The threshold speed was also well above the target at 138 knots, which may have contributed to the long touchdown point. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 20 feet from the centerline, which could have been due to a combination of factors including wind, pilot error, or aircraft performance.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 70°F and a wind of 2 knots at 60°. The crosswind was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind. Despite the favorable weather conditions, the pilot was still unable to achieve a perfect landing.

The total landing distance of 4,816 feet was 73% of the available runway length, which is slightly above average. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 29 feet from the centerline, which could have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown position misalignment.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot was able to safely bring the aircraft to the ground without any major issues. However, there are areas for improvement, including reducing the touchdown speed and improving the alignment of the aircraft on final approach.
