The flight in question was operated by a Boeing 737 Max 8 BBJ aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll from runway 35L at the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport (KSDF) was smooth, with a takeoff distance of 1,083 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 147 knots.

As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it encountered local weather conditions of 12°C temperature and a wind speed of 14 knots at 79°. The crosswind component was 14 knots, while the tailwind component was 1 knot. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile southwest of Audubon Park, Kentucky, and the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,503 feet above sea level to 34,599 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,095 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 114 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started 3 miles south of Stub's Field Alliance (3OH5) in Ohio, and lasted for 153 minutes, covering a distance of 1,250 nautical miles. The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 34,974 feet above sea level to 37,721 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,747 feet in 5 minutes, covering a distance of 42 nautical miles. The climb started 35 miles southwest of CCP1 Parsons Pond in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The aircraft then began another enroute climb, this time from 36,496 feet above sea level to 38,112 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,616 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 27 nautical miles. The climb started at a specific latitude and longitude, and the enroute level cruise started at a different location, lasting for 264 minutes and covering a distance of 1,557 nautical miles.

As the aircraft began its descent, it started 6 miles northwest of Etretat in Normandie, France, and descended from 39,118 feet above sea level to 1,762 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,355 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 104 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 21 at LFPB Paris-Le Bourget Airport was from the northeast, with a heading of 205.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,579 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 21 was smooth, with a touchdown distance of 431 meters, a touchdown speed of 122 knots, and a touchdown rate of -855 feet per minute, which was considered very heavy. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.9 meters from the centerline, and the local weather conditions were 10°C temperature and a wind speed of 10 knots at 249°. The crosswind component was 7 knots, while the headwind component was also 7 knots.

The total landing distance was 912 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline. The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 21 at LFPB Paris-Le Bourget Airport in the 737 Max 8 BBJ

Landing Score 81.15 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Boeing 737 Max 8 BBJ, successfully landed at Paris-Le Bourget Airport on runway 21. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 205.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,579 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft scored 81.2% on this landing, indicating a satisfactory performance.

Upon reaching the threshold height of 75 feet agl, the aircraft was found to be above the target height, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher altitude. The threshold speed of 134 knots was also noted, which is a standard speed for landing. The touchdown distance of 431 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.

However, the touchdown speed of 122 knots was slightly below the threshold speed, which may have contributed to the heavy touchdown rate of -855 feet per minute (fpm). A heavy touchdown rate can be a concern as it may indicate that the aircraft is touching down too quickly, which can put additional stress on the landing gear and potentially lead to a bumpy ride for passengers.

In addition to the touchdown issues, the runway touchdown position was found to be misaligned by 11.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation by the pilot. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 10 knots at 249°, were relatively calm, with a crosswind and headwind of 7 knots each.

The total landing distance of 912 meters was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was found to be slightly misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's rollout or a miscalculation by the pilot.

Overall, while the landing was considered satisfactory, there were some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the touchdown speed and rate, as well as the runway touchdown position and rollout alignment.
