Landing on runway 17R at KDEN Denver International Airport in the Boeing 737-MAX8

Landing Score 97.99 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 successfully landed at KDEN Denver International Airport on runway 17R with a final approach from the north, heading 181.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,290 feet above ground level. The pilot demonstrated a high level of proficiency in navigating the aircraft towards the runway, ultimately scoring an impressive 98.0%.

Upon final approach, the pilot effectively managed the descent to ensure a 'good threshold height', which signifies an optimal rate of descent at a distance of approximately 800 feet from the runway threshold. A key factor contributing to the successful landing was the accurate achievement of the prescribed threshold speed of 148 knots. This ensured the aircraft's controlled deceleration and stabilized approach before touchdown.

The pilot's performance in managing the aircraft's speed during the final stages of descent is notable, albeit imperfect. Despite being just 6 kt off, a speed of 142 kt at touchdown was classified as a 'little fast', reflecting an incomplete deceleration prior to touching down on the runway. However, the 'good' touchdown rate of -185 feet per minute (fpm) signifies that the aircraft was still able to control its descent effectively throughout the landing.

While the overall performance of the pilot was commendable, there were instances of minor deviation from standard operating procedures. The touchdown point was located 370 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone. Furthermore, despite the runway having sufficient length, the pilot was unable to maintain precise alignment, with the aircraft drifting 17 feet from the centreline.

Weather conditions at the time of the landing contributed significantly to the successful outcome. A crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 2 kt, with the wind direction being perpendicular to the runway at 250°, posed some degree of challenge. The presence of these winds could have complicated the landing process, especially considering the aircraft's size and configuration.

In conclusion, while the pilot showed excellent performance and control in navigating the Boeing 737-MAX8 to a safe touchdown on runway 17R at KDEN International Airport, it is worth noting areas of improvement for further professional development.
