Landing on runway 13L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport in the Boeing 737-900

Landing Score 97.38 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed on runway 13L at KJFK John F Kennedy International Airport with a score of 97.4%. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 123.0° at 1 nautical mile and 249 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, which is a critical aspect of a safe landing.

Upon touchdown, the threshold speed was recorded at 146 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 143 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilot may have needed to apply more braking force upon touchdown. The touchdown rate of -166 feet per minute (fpm) was good, indicating a controlled descent.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and wind speeds of 8 knots at 188°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,232 meters was 50% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the braking phase and was able to align the aircraft with the centerline of the runway.

Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills. However, there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and alignment during the final approach.
