Arrival

Reduce power sooner on final so you cross the threshold at 134 kt, carrying that speed into the flare.

What happened: Crossing the threshold at 153 kt, 19 kt above 134 kt, usually leaves extra energy that lets the sink come back after the flare has arrested it, and that returning sink usually carries through to a firm touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 134 kt at the threshold.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

Rotated late, and quickly

The nose came up at 158 kt, 9 kt after the 149 kt rotate speed, and rose at 3.6° a second, faster than the 2.6 to 3.5 other Boeing 737 MAX 8 pilots fly.

The pull started late and then came quickly, as if to make up the time. Start it on the rotate speed instead, so there is nothing to catch up, and keep it to the normal rate for this aircraft.

Plan view the roll down the 3,143 m runway.

Rolled from 130 m in, drifted 4.7 m left of the centreline and was back on it to lift off, in 9 kn of crosswind from the left. Airborne 66 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

How to read this

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The rotation detail below draws the rotation against the rates for this aircraft and its tail-strike pitch, where the slope reads properly. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Rotation detail the pitch over the seconds from rotation to 35 ft, where the slope reads properly.

How to read this

The pitch over the seconds from the nose starting to come up to 35 ft, stretched so the slope reads properly. The green dot is where the nose started up, the grey band runs to the wheels leaving, and the figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up. The two dashed green lines rising from the rotation point are 2.6 to 3.5° a second, the middle half of rotation rates flown by other Boeing 737 MAX 8 pilots over the last 180 days (80 takeoffs); the grey pair are 2 to 3° a second, the rates airliners are rotated at. A trace steeper than both green lines is a faster rotation than most, one shallower than both a slower one. The red dashed line is 11°, the pitch at which this aircraft's tail touches the runway with the wheels still on it, drawn from rotation to liftoff only: once the wheels leave, every foot climbed adds tail clearance.

The stabilisation gates

One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

When the approach was stable

Never every check met at once: fast from 1.3 nm, right of the centreline from 0.4 nm and high from 0.3 nm to the threshold.

How to read this

Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.

How to read this

Your height above the runway against the distance still to go. The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 34 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 79 ft, 29 ft above the 50 ft target; began the flare high, at 52 ft. Touched down 433 m in, 128 m past the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 1,524 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way. The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 taxied from the parking area to runway 01L at KADW Joint Base Andrews, a movement that lasted 6 minutes and covered 1 nm. The take-off roll used 2,081 m, 66 % of the runway, and rotation was achieved at 158 kt. Local weather at departure was 16 °C with wind 13 kt from 230°, a 10 kt crosswind and a 9 kt tailwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 30 seconds, averaging 1,817 fpm and reaching 204 kt at the top of the segment. The aircraft then climbed from 1,301 ft asl to 18,797 ft asl in 10 minutes, covering 45 nm while passing overhead Forestville. Level flight at 19,200 ft asl continued for 8 minutes over 3 nm, beginning 1 mile north-west of Butlertown. A further climb from 19,695 ft asl to 32,338 ft asl lasted 11 minutes and covered 74 nm, starting overhead MD69 Harris Airport Still Pond. Level flight at 33,000 ft asl was held for 16 minutes over 131 nm, beginning 1 mile south-east of Morrisville. The climb from 33,523 ft asl to 37,954 ft asl took 5 minutes and covered 38 nm, starting 1 mile east of Lake Pocotopaug. Level cruise at 38,000 ft asl was maintained for 314 minutes, covering 2,427 nm, beginning 2 miles south-west of Douglas.

Descent began from 38,004 ft asl and reached 961 ft asl in 23 minutes, covering 120 nm, starting 73 miles south-west of EIIB Clifden Airport. The final approach to runway 06 at EINN Shannon Airport descended from 966 ft agl to 520 ft agl in 95 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, centreline, speed and wings level; the glideslope check was not met. Configuration on final was landing gear down at 605 ft agl, 147 kt; final flap position 5 at 913 ft agl, 132 kt; autopilot was disconnected at 202 ft agl, 162 kt.

Landing on runway 06, which is 3,188 m long, the threshold height at 79 ft agl and the threshold speed of 153 kt were both well above target. The flare began early and was described as great. Touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the touchdown zone at 148 kt, a little fast, with a very hard rate of -539 fpm. Runway-touchdown alignment was very good and there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 1,141 m, 36 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was slightly off centreline by 9.1 m.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 7 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The flight covered a total of 2,849 nm in 405 minutes and used 10,320 kg of fuel. Local weather at Shannon was 9 °C with wind 12 kt from 070°, a 4 kt crosswind and a 12 kt headwind.
