Next time

Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 12°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

Flight narrative

A Boeing 737-800 departed from Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 04R, taking off with a distance of 980 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 148 knots, with a local temperature of 5°C and wind conditions of 8 knots at 80°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots.

As the aircraft climbed to its enroute cruise altitude, it passed overhead West Elsdon, Illinois, and reached a height of 35,022 feet above sea level in 16 minutes, covering a distance of 141 nautical miles. The climb was a significant increase of 33,315 feet from the initial altitude of 1,707 feet. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 14 minutes and covered 455 nautical miles, starting 2 miles northeast of Hillsdale Municipal Airport (KJYM) in Michigan. The flight continued with multiple level cruise and descent phases, with the final descent starting overhead Peabody, Massachusetts, before making a final approach to runway 22L at Logan International Airport (KBOS).

The aircraft landed on runway 22L, with a total landing distance of 1,387 meters, which accounted for 60% of the runway. The touchdown point was 59 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 151 knots. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.2 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 8.0 meters from the centerline. The total flight distance was 771 nautical miles, and the flight used 4,536 kilograms of fuel, lasting a total of 57 minutes.

Landing Score 97.01 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 22L at KBOS Logan International Airport, marking a satisfactory conclusion to the approach from the north. The aircraft's descent was characterized by good approach quality, with a steady and controlled rate of descent. The threshold height was well-managed, allowing the crew to maintain a safe margin above the runway surface. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering 151 kt, which may have contributed to a slightly faster touchdown speed of 147 kt.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's touchdown rate was fair at -220 fpm, indicating a moderate deceleration. Unfortunately, the touchdown point was 59 m beyond the touchdown zone, which may have been influenced by the slightly fast touchdown speed. Furthermore, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.2 m from the centreline, which could have been a result of the crew's efforts to maintain control during the landing. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of -6 °C and a moderate headwind of 4 kt, may have also played a role in the landing's dynamics.

The total landing distance of 1,387 m was within the acceptable range, accounting for 60% of the runway length. During the rollout phase, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 8.0 m from the centreline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position. Despite these minor deviations, the overall landing performance was satisfactory, earning a score of 97.0%. The crew's ability to maintain control and manage the aircraft's descent and touchdown was commendable, given the challenging weather conditions.
