Landing on runway 16 at KXNA Northwest Arkansas National Airport in the CRJ900

Landing Score 89.18 %

Landing Summary

The CRJ900 aircraft successfully landed at KXNA Northwest Arkansas National Airport, achieving a score of 89.2%. The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 160.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,372 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft was on a steady course for a landing on runway 16, which has a length of 2,685 meters.

Upon reaching the threshold, the aircraft's height was well above the target, indicating a good approach path. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 120 knots, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a safe speed. Despite this, the touchdown point was 183 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.

The touchdown speed of 106 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -150 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions were favorable for the landing, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 1,645 meters was 61% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

During the rollout, the aircraft maintained a very good alignment with the runway centerline, indicating that the pilots had good control of the aircraft. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft scored well on most of the key performance metrics.
