The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 10,767 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 771 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 32 at Zürich Airport (LSZH) in Switzerland. The takeoff distance was 4,817 feet, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 46°F and winds of 2 knots at 109 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, while the tailwind was 2 knots. The enroute climb began overhead Oberglatt, a town in the Kanton Zurich region of Switzerland, where the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 2,419 feet above sea level to 36,201 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,782 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 109 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started overhead Neuenstein, a town in the Baden-Wuerttemberg region of Germany, and lasted for 71 minutes, covering a distance of 564 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 2 miles south of Gunnebo, a town in Kalmar, Sweden. The descent from 36,023 feet above sea level to 1,379 feet above sea level, a decrease of 34,644 feet in 22 minutes, covered a distance of 122 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 01L at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (ESSA) was made from the south, heading 10.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,255 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 01L was successful, with a touchdown distance of 774 feet, which was 34% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was 131 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -239 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 45°F and winds of 5 knots at 349 degrees. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance was 3,671 feet, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
In total, the flight distance was 803 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 126 minutes. The aircraft used 11,567 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The final approach to runway 01L was executed from the south, with a heading of 10.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,255 feet above ground level (agl). This positioning allowed the aircraft to make a precise approach to the runway, ultimately resulting in a good threshold height.
Upon landing, the aircraft maintained a threshold speed of 134 knots, which is within the acceptable range for a safe touchdown. The touchdown distance of 774 feet was also within the expected parameters, indicating that the pilot had effectively managed the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown speed of 131 knots was also satisfactory, and the aircraft's rate of descent at -239 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, although it could be improved upon.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 45°F and a wind speed of 5 knots from a direction of 349°. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which the pilot effectively managed to maintain a stable approach and landing. The total landing distance of 3,671 feet was 34% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient stopping distance available in case of an emergency.
The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the Boeing 737-800's landing at ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda Airport was a success, with the aircraft performing well within the expected parameters.
