What went well

Touched down at -217 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 2.4 ft off the centreline, no bounce
1.15 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 19 %, −0.92 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 14.6 ° at 67 %, −0.44 points
Arrival Taxi — Taxi Lights at 0 %, −0.21 points

Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 3.4°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Landing on runway 11 at KMSY Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in the Boeing 737-800
Landing Score 93.41 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KMSY Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, achieving a score of 93.4%. The final approach to runway 11 was initiated from the west, with a heading of 106.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,196 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 770 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly outside the target area. The touchdown speed of 145 knots was a bit faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have needed to apply more braking force to bring the aircraft to a stop. However, the touchdown rate of -202 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the pilot was able to manage the descent effectively.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 0°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, and the tailwind component was even weaker at 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain a consistent and accurate course during the final approach. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the braking phase.

The total landing distance of 5,715 feet was 58% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft during the final approach and touchdown phases.
