The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 05R at Düsseldorf Airport (EDDL). The takeoff distance was 1,437 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 164 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 30°C and a wind speed of 11 knots at 320°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. After departing from Düsseldorf Airport, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Ratingen, a town in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The climb took place from an altitude of 1,144 feet above sea level to 1,960 feet above sea level, an increase of 816 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The enroute descent started 2 miles north of Ratingen, where the aircraft descended from 1,974 feet above sea level to 1,191 feet above sea level, a decrease of 783 feet in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. Following the descent, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile north of Heiligenhaus, another town in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. This cruise phase lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 23L at Düsseldorf Airport from the northeast, heading 236.0° at an altitude of 336 feet above ground level and 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing took place on runway 23L, which has a length of 2,395 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 133 knots.

The touchdown distance was good at 263 meters, and the touchdown speed was 128 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was firm at -362 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 10 knots at 320°, with a crosswind component of 10 knots and a headwind component of 0 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,298 meters, which is 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 14.3 meters from the centerline.

Landing on runway 23L at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport in the Boeing 737-MAX8

Landing Score 92.26 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at EDDL Düsseldorf Airport on runway 23L, achieving a score of 92.3%. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 236.0° at 1 nautical mile and 336 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a steady course, and the landing was executed smoothly.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly below the target at 133 knots, but this did not significantly impact the overall performance. The touchdown distance of 263 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 128 knots was also satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate was firm at -362 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slightly steeper descent than intended.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.5 meters from the centerline, which could be attributed to minor deviations in the aircraft's approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 10 knots at 320°, contributed to a moderate crosswind component of 10 knots. Fortunately, there was no headwind component, which would have further complicated the landing.

The total landing distance of 1,298 meters was 54% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 14.3 meters from the centerline, which may require further attention to ensure precise control during the landing phase.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft's performance was satisfactory, considering the given weather conditions and the slight deviations in the approach path.
