Landing on runway 08R at KMIA Miami International Airport in the Boeing B737-800

Landing Score 82.68 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing B737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Miami International Airport (KMIA) on runway 08R, but the landing was not without some notable issues. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 87.0° at 1 nautical mile and 364 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the touchdown point was 226 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have been slightly off-target.

The touchdown speed of 152 knots was faster than the target speed, which could have contributed to the slightly longer landing distance. The touchdown rate of -227 feet per minute was considered fair, suggesting that the pilot managed to control the descent effectively. However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 30 feet from the centreline, which could have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a miscalculation of the landing distance.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 75°F. The runway length of 10,480 feet was more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance, which was 4,085 feet, or 39% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 61 feet from the centreline, which could have been due to a combination of factors, including the initial touchdown position and the pilot's control of the aircraft during the rollout.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot managed to bring the aircraft safely to the ground, albeit with some deviations from the ideal touchdown position and speed. The incident highlights the importance of precise approach and landing techniques, as well as the need for pilots to be aware of their surroundings and make adjustments as necessary to ensure a safe and controlled landing.
