Landing on runway 18R at KMCO Orlando International Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8

Landing Score 97.45 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737 MAX 8, scored 97.5%, entered the final approach to runway 18R at KMCO from the north on a heading of 179.0° at 4 nm and 1,294 ft agl, with a temperature of 31 °C, wind 12 kt from 220°, providing an 8 kt cross-wind component and a 9 kt head-wind component; the threshold height was reported as good.

During the threshold and flare segment the aircraft maintained a threshold speed of 155 kt, noted as slightly above the target, and proceeded to flare for touchdown.

At touchdown the aircraft landed 348 m down the runway, a distance described as good, with a speed of 153 kt that was a little fast and a hard vertical rate of minus 424 fpm; the touchdown point was slightly misaligned by 3.2 m from the centreline.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,699 m, representing 46 % of the 3,662 m runway, and the runway rollout alignment was very good.

Refine flare timing to reduce the hard touchdown rate and achieve a smoother vertical profile, and aim for tighter centreline tracking to eliminate the slight 3.2 m offset at touchdown.
