The enroute climb started 1 mile southwest of the airport and reached an altitude of 29,165 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,240 feet in 16 minutes, covering 99 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, starting 16 miles northeast of Cardenas, Nicaragua, and lasting 29 minutes, covering 218 nautical miles. This was followed by a series of enroute climbs and level cruises, including a climb from 31,969 feet to 32,430 feet in 2 minutes, covering 13 nautical miles, and a level cruise from 2 miles east of Joya Del Quebracho Airport in Honduras, lasting 2 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered a long level cruise phase, starting 5 miles northwest of Yoro Airport in Honduras, and lasting 129 minutes, covering 887 nautical miles. As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent, starting 63 miles southeast of Galveston, Texas, and descending from 35,960 feet to 1,977 feet in 24 minutes, covering 112 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 13R at William P. Hobby Airport in Houston, Texas, was made from the northwest, with a heading of 134.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,261 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,501 feet, a touchdown speed of 126 knots, and a touchdown rate of -253 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 feet from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 82°F temperature and a 7-knot headwind at 183°. The total landing distance was 3,637 feet, which accounted for 55% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 9 minutes and covered 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 13R at KHOU William P Hobby Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8
Landing Score 98.97 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 successfully landed at KHOU William P Hobby Airport, with a final approach score of 99.0%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the northwest, heading 134.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise landing on runway 13R, which has a length of 6,573 feet.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway threshold. The threshold speed of 138 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's control over the aircraft's descent. The touchdown distance of 1,501 feet was also good, indicating that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's rate of descent.

However, the touchdown rate of -253 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to control the rate of descent more effectively. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 14 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control of the aircraft during the final approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 82°F and winds of 11 knots at 183°. The crosswind component was 8 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions would have required the pilot to make adjustments to the aircraft's approach and landing, but the pilot was able to successfully navigate the aircraft to the runway.

The total landing distance of 3,637 feet was 55% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's rate of descent and touchdown speed effectively. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, the pilot's performance during the landing was excellent, with a high score of 99.0%. The pilot demonstrated good control over the aircraft's descent, touchdown speed, and rollout alignment, despite the slight deviation in the runway touchdown position.
