Landing on runway 30L at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 91.76 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (KMSP) on runway 30L. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 302.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,353 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good approach speed, touching down at 146 knots, which was within the target threshold speed.

However, the touchdown speed of 143 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilot may have applied a bit more flare than necessary. The touchdown rate was also quite hard, at -506 feet per minute (fpm), which could have resulted in a bumpy ride for the passengers. Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 21°F and a wind speed of 6 knots from 310°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot and a headwind of 6 knots, which helped to stabilize the approach. The total landing distance of 4,235 feet was 42% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and avoided any deviations from the centerline. Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and rate.
