Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Landing Score 98.33 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Melbourne International Airport (YMML) on runway 34, achieving a score of 98.3%. The final approach was initiated from the south, heading 352.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,242 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, indicating a stable and controlled descent.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was recorded at 145 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly faster than desired, suggesting a minor deviation from the optimal landing speed. The touchdown rate of -321 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled and stable touchdown.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 feet from the centreline, which may have been due to a minor deviation in the aircraft's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 72°F and a gentle wind of 4 knots at 330°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.

The total landing distance of 4,615 feet was 38% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, maintaining a stable and controlled rollout.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score of 98.3%. While there were minor deviations in the touchdown speed and runway alignment, the pilot's skills and the aircraft's performance were sufficient to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
