Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

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.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing procedure from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. After taxiing, the aircraft took off from runway 03L at the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, which is a key transportation hub. Takeoff distance covered 41% of the entire runway, indicating a standard or slightly longer takeoff roll for a Boeing 737-800. The aircraft lifted off the ground at a speed of 153 knots, which is the recommended liftoff speed for this type of aircraft.

The departure was facilitated by local weather conditions, with a temperature of 64°F and wind speeds ranging from 1 to 2 knots. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, while the headwind component was also 1 kt. Following takeoff, the aircraft began its initial climb at 1,678 feet above sea level (asl), but it quickly transitioned into an enroute climb, starting 2 miles west of Taylor, Michigan. During this enroute climb, the aircraft ascended from 1,678 to 6,767 ft asl, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles and achieving an ascent rate of 5,089 ft in 1 minute.

The aircraft then entered a level cruise, lasting 2 minutes and covering 7 nautical miles, northeast of Allen Park, Michigan. However, this cruise period was short-lived, as the aircraft initiated another climb approximately 2 miles east of Wyandotte, Michigan. This climb phase was significantly more extensive, spanning from 7,037 to 34,378 ft asl, an increase of 27,340 ft in 16 minutes, and covering 114 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft engaged in another prolonged level cruise phase that lasted 110 minutes over a distance of 802 nautical miles, southeast of Jackson Center, Ohio.

As the aircraft approached its final destination, it initiated a descent 2 miles west of White City, Florida, reducing its altitude from 33,728 ft asl to 1,283 ft asl. The descent covered a distance of 94 nautical miles and took 21 minutes, a more moderate rate. The final approach to runway 26L at Miami International Airport (KMIA) was executed from the east, with the aircraft maintaining its heading at 267.0 ° and altitude at 4 nautical miles and 1,265 feet above ground level.

The landing was conducted on runway 26L at KMIA, with a length of 10,480 feet. Weather conditions at this time were characterized by a temperature of 88°F, a wind speed of 3 kt from a direction of 250°, a crosswind of 1 kt, and a headwind of 3 kt. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was also slightly above the recommended rate of 142 kt. The touchdown took place 1,361 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone at a speed of 133 kt, which is somewhat higher than the recommended speed. The touchdown rate was fair at -265 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 17 feet.

The total landing distance was 5,860 feet, which represents 56% of the runway length. Notably, the runway rollout alignment was very good. Finally, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. Throughout the flight, the aircraft consumed 14,785 pounds of fuel and traveled a total distance of 1,031 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 162 minutes.

Landing Summary

A Boeing 737-800 aircraft recently landed at KMIA Miami International Airport, marking a notable flight procedure. The aircraft made its final approach to runway 26L from the east, specifically from a heading of 267.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and 1,265 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 26L, which has a length of 10,480 feet. However, there was a slight discrepancy in the threshold height, with the target height being slightly below the actual height of 57 feet above ground level. The aircraft's speed also exceeded the target value at 142 knots.

Notably, the touchdown point occurred 1,361 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone. The aircraft's touchdown speed of 133 knots was slightly higher than the desired rate, resulting in an average descent rate of -265 feet per minute, which was deemed fair by most standards.

In addition to its landing performance, the aircraft's alignment during rollout was also noteworthy. Despite the slight misalignment of 17 feet from the runway's centerline at touchdown, the rollout was exceptionally precise, which reflects positively on the pilot's skills.

Weather conditions during the landing were generally favorable, with a temperature of 88°F and wind at a moderate 3 knots from 250°. As a result, the aircraft experienced only a 1-knot crosswind and a 3-knot headwind, resulting in a relatively stable flight path. Overall, the landing was considered a success, with some minor areas to improve upon in future flights.
