Landing on runway 26R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport in the Boeing 737-900

Landing Score 99.79 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 has successfully completed a landing operation at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport on runway 26R. The aircraft touched down with a high score of 99.8%, indicating a near-perfect execution of the landing procedure.

As the aircraft began its final approach from the east at a heading of 270.0°, it was at an altitude of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl) and 4 nautical miles from the runway. The pilot expertly guided the aircraft onto the runway, ensuring a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 141 knots, which was within the acceptable limits.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well in terms of distance, with a touchdown distance of 1,215 feet, which was also within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown speed of 137 knots was slightly faster than ideal, but this did not have a significant impact on the overall landing quality.

The landing rate was another area of success, as the aircraft descended at a rate of -198 feet per minute (fpm), which is considered good. Furthermore, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft landed precisely on the centerline of the runway.

Local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 77°F and a relatively light wind of 7 knots at 60°. While there was a slight wind component of 3 knots as a crosswind and 6 knots as a tailwind, these were not significant enough to affect the landing operation.

In terms of overall performance, the total landing distance was 5,328 feet, which is equivalent to 59% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft landed relatively close to the end of the runway, requiring a longer roll-out distance. However, this was not unexpected given the slight crosswind and tailwind components.

During the runway rollout, the aircraft maintained perfect alignment, indicating that the brakes were applied smoothly and effectively. Overall, the Boeing 737-900 landing operation at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport was a success, with the aircraft performing well in most areas.
