Landing on runway 28R at KSFO San Francisco International Airport in the Boeing 737-MAX8

Landing Score 96.89 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28R, achieving a score of 96.9%. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 303.0° at 2 nautical miles and 584 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's descent was precise, with a touchdown point located 707 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone.

The landing speed was slightly above the target at 148 knots, while the touchdown speed was a bit fast at 139 knots. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -57 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision in navigating the aircraft to the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 180°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which contributed to the smooth landing. The total landing distance was 5,158 feet, accounting for 45% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase. Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and the pilot demonstrating excellent skills in navigating the aircraft to the runway.
