Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 14°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed below the reference speed.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,611 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 319 m 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 6 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 29R at KTUS Tucson International Airport. The takeoff distance was 1,676 meters, which is 50% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots at 320 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 11 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile northwest of KTUS Tucson International Airport and climbing from 3,596 feet above sea level to 37,548 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,952 feet in 15 minutes and covering a distance of 124 nautical miles.
After the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 7 miles south of Cliff, New Mexico, and lasting 64 minutes. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 933 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles south of Wayland, Missouri, and descending from 36,752 feet above sea level to 6,331 feet above sea level, a decrease of 30,421 feet in 18 minutes and covering a distance of 159 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered another level cruise, starting 3 miles northeast of C09 Morris Mun-Washburn Morris, Illinois, and lasting 5 minutes. This was followed by another descent, starting 1 mile northeast of Burbank, Illinois, and descending from 5,776 feet above sea level to 2,835 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,941 feet in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 14 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered yet another level cruise, starting 6 miles northeast of South Chicago, Illinois, and lasting 3 minutes. This was followed by another descent, starting overhead Near South Side, Illinois, and descending from 2,594 feet above sea level to 1,387 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,207 feet in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 22L at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport was made from the northeast, heading 222.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 768 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 22L, which has a length of 1,611 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 149 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 322 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 139 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -255 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 15 knots at 210 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.
The total landing distance was 972 meters, which is 60% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took 3 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,282 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 119 minutes. The aircraft used 6,830 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 22L. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 222.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 768 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 99.6%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 149 knots, which was slightly above the target threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 322 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled during the landing. The touchdown speed of 139 knots was a little fast, but this did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing.
The aircraft's descent rate was fair at -255 feet per minute (fpm), which is a reasonable rate for a landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-aligned with the runway during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from 210°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 15 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and improve the landing performance.
The total landing distance of 972 meters was 60% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance for a Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
