Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 27 at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport with a score of 90.3%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 269.0° at 4 nm and 1,299 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 56 ft agl, slightly above the target. The threshold speed of 148 kt was also slightly above the target, but still within acceptable limits.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it touched down 1,108 ft beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 140 kt, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate of -86 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft tracking the centreline closely. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 79°F and a gentle wind of 6 kt at 150°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 kt and a tailwind of 3 kt.

The total landing distance of 6,340 ft was 64% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 36 ft from the centreline, which could be improved upon. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with a good approach quality and a smooth touchdown, but with some room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and rollout alignment.

Flare
100 %
The flare tracked the target profile exactly. The aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 2,461 ft past the threshold. Threshold speed was not the cause here - hold the aim point on the approach and let the aircraft settle rather than holding it off, and the touchdown comes back to the numbers.
