Landing Score 99.09 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-900 aircraft successfully landed at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (KPHX) with a score of 99.1%. The final approach to runway 08 was initiated from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,182 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 176 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 131 knots. However, the touchdown rate was considered fair at -231 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 14 feet, which may have contributed to the slightly off-center touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 70°F and a wind speed of 0 knots from 0°. This resulted in a zero crosswind and headwind, making the landing conditions ideal. The total landing distance was 4,492 feet, which accounted for 43% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft maintained a stable and controlled descent during the landing phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft meeting most of the required parameters. However, the slightly off-center touchdown and fair touchdown rate may indicate areas for improvement in the pilot's technique or the aircraft's performance.
