Landing on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 96.8 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 04R, achieving a high score of 96.8%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 44.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,280 feet above ground level (agl).

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, indicating a precise and controlled descent. The threshold speed of 149 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the landing phase. The touchdown distance of 1,280 feet was also satisfactory, but the touchdown speed of 147 knots was slightly higher than desired, which may have resulted in a firmer touchdown rate.

The touchdown rate of -388 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, but this can be attributed to the slightly higher touchdown speed. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the touchdown. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 54°F and a wind speed of 3 knots at 80°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.

The total landing distance of 3,491 feet was 66% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and management of the aircraft during the final approach and touchdown phases.
