Landing on runway 10 at TNCM Princess Juliana International Airport in the Boeing 747-8

Landing Score 98.42 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 747-8 aircraft successfully landed at TNCM Princess Juliana International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.4%. The final approach to runway 10 was conducted from the west, heading 80.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,200 feet above ground level.

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 146 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 144 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -286 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.2 meters, which could have been a result of the aircraft's approach path or the pilot's decision to touch down slightly off-centre.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a high temperature of 35°C and a moderate headwind of 10 knots from a direction of 82°. The crosswind component was negligible, with a speed of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 1,251 meters was 55% of the available runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

One of the notable aspects of the landing was the runway rollout alignment, which was very good. This suggests that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and was able to align the aircraft with the centreline of the runway. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot's skills and decision-making were evident in the high score achieved.
