The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with five checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,899 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,453 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 15L at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport. The takeoff distance was 5,530 feet, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 159 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 6 knots at 219 degrees. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the headwind was 2 knots. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started 1 mile south of KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, where the aircraft climbed from 1,099 feet above sea level to 35,312 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,213 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 142 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 3 miles west of Point Venture, Texas, and lasted for 78 minutes, covering a distance of 932 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile east of KTNP Twentynine Palms Airport, where it descended from 34,622 feet above sea level to 1,405 feet above sea level, a decrease of 33,217 feet in 24 minutes, covering a distance of 121 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport was made from the east, heading 263.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,267 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 24R was successful, with a runway length of 8,899 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was 1,453 feet, and the touchdown speed was 132 knots, which was good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -211 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 68 degrees Fahrenheit and a wind speed of 3 knots at 150 degrees. The crosswind was 3 knots, and the tailwind was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 3,358 feet, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The taxiing to the parking from the runway took 7 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile.
The total flight distance was 1,203 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 141 minutes. The aircraft used 18,087 pounds of fuel during the flight.
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed on runway 24R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport, achieving a high score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 263.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,267 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 139 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 1,453 feet, and the touchdown speed of 132 knots was well within the recommended range. However, the touchdown rate of -211 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have touched down slightly harder than desired.
Despite the slightly higher touchdown rate, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained excellent control and alignment during the final stages of the approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 68°F and a light wind of 3 knots from 150°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the tailwind component was negligible at 1 knot.
The total landing distance of 3,358 feet was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained excellent control and alignment during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft performing well within the recommended parameters. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the smooth and controlled manner in which the aircraft touched down and rolled out on the runway.
