The flight began with a leisurely taxiing session from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 12 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The Boeing 737-800 was ready to take to the skies from runway 27R at Philadelphia International Airport.

As the aircraft lifted off, the local weather conditions were ideal. The temperature was a warm 89 °F, with a gentle headwind of 3 knots and a slight crosswind of 4 knots. The aircraft gained speed at an impressive 154 knots, covering a takeoff distance of 3,412 feet, which was only 36% of the runway. The flight was underway, heading northwest towards its destination.

The enroute climb began shortly after departure, as the aircraft ascended from 1,105 feet above sea level to 33,918 feet, a staggering increase of 32,813 feet. This climb took a mere 20 minutes and covered a significant distance of 120 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, remaining at 33,918 feet for 32 minutes and traveling 196 nautical miles.

As the flight continued, the aircraft began its descent from 33,918 feet, touching down 84 nautical miles later at an altitude of 7,346 feet. However, the descent was not a single, long journey. After leveling off at 7,346 feet for a brief 7-minute period, covering 16 nautical miles, the aircraft continued its downward trajectory.

The next descent, from 7,017 feet to 1,855 feet, took 9 minutes and covered 19 nautical miles. This brought the aircraft to a safer altitude, allowing it to approach its final destination.

The final approach to runway 22L at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport began from the north east, with the aircraft flying at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,208 feet above ground level. The landing was executed smoothly, with the threshold height being above target but the threshold speed being excellent.

However, the touchdown point was 890 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was slightly higher than desired. The touchdown rate was firm at -355 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at landing were significantly cooler, with a temperature of 64 °F and a crosswind of 4 knots.

The total landing distance was 6,593 feet, which accounted for 57% of the runway length. After a successful landing, the aircraft made its way to the parking area, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 4 minutes.

The total flight distance was 444 nautical miles, which the aircraft covered in just 104 minutes, consuming a considerable 10,203 pounds of fuel in the process. The flight was completed without any major incidents or issues, showcasing the aircraft's impressive performance and the crew's expert handling.

Landing on runway 22L at KDTW Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 89.61 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 successfully completed a landing at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport's runway 22L. The aircraft scored an overall rating of 89.6% on this approach and landing. The pilots began their final approach from the northeast, aligning themselves with the runway and tracking a heading of 209.0° at an altitude of 1,208 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

Throughout the final approach, the pilots maintained a good speed, with a threshold speed of 132 knots being achieved. However, they slightly exceeded the ideal touchdown speed, also recorded at 132 knots, which is slightly faster than recommended. Despite this minor issue, the pilots demonstrated a firm touchdown rate of -355 feet per minute, indicating a well-controlled descent.

The threshold height, at 67 feet agl, was slightly above target, but the pilots managed to recover smoothly and safely land the plane within the allowed parameters. The touchdown point was located 890 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is still within the allowed distance.

The landing was further influenced by the local weather conditions, with the temperature at 64°F and a gentle headwind of 2 knots and crosswind of 4 knots. The aircraft was able to touch down within the runway's designated parameters.

The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 6,593 feet, which corresponds to approximately 57% of the runway length. This is well within the allowed limits. During the rollout phase, the pilots maintained excellent alignment, ensuring a smooth and safe conclusion to the landing operation.
