What went well

Touched down at -171 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,471 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Flare on profile — 100 %

What held you back

Arrival Touchdown — Speed at touchdown 139 kt at 61 %, Landing Bounce at 80 %, −0.47 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was too high at 146 kt at 60 %, −0.42 points

Next time

Arrival

Reduce power earlier on final so threshold speed settles at 122 kt instead of carrying it into the flare.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 146 kt, well above the 122 kt target speed, and that excess speed was still showing at touchdown. Crossing the threshold fast usually carries straight through to a fast touchdown.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator against 122 kt on short final.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The liftoff speed was 150 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 34°F and winds of 2 knots at 120°. The crosswind was negligible, but there was a 2-knot tailwind. The enroute climb started shortly after takeoff, as the aircraft climbed from 1,839 feet above sea level to 35,158 feet above sea level, an increase of 33,319 feet in 16 minutes and covering a distance of 87 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise began 1 mile northwest of the Cornfield Canyon Airport (2MN4) in Minnesota, and lasted for 149 minutes, covering a distance of 932 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 5 miles west of the Rooke Field Refugio Airport (KRFG) in Texas, descending from 34,933 feet above sea level to 5,976 feet above sea level, a decrease of 28,957 feet in 14 minutes and covering a distance of 83 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise resumed 15 miles east of the Armstrong Ranch Airport (47TX) in Texas, and lasted for 3 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent 8 miles north of the Johnson Port Mansfield Airport (T05) in Texas, descending from 5,621 feet above sea level to 2,089 feet above sea level, a decrease of 3,533 feet in 3 minutes and covering a distance of 13 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise started again 6 miles east of the T R Funk Inc Airport (92XS) in Texas, and lasted for 5 minutes, covering a distance of 14 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 17R at the Valley International Airport (KHRL) began from the north, with the aircraft heading 181.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,240 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 17R was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,479 feet and a touchdown speed of 139 knots, which was slightly too fast. The touchdown rate was good at -161 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 84°F and winds of 4 knots at 170°, with a 1-knot crosswind and a 4-knot headwind.

The total landing distance was 4,492 feet, which was 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft taxied to the parking from the runway in 2 minutes, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,150 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 205 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 18,840 pounds.

Landing on runway 17R at KHRL Valley International Airport in the Boeing 737-800
Landing Score 94.66 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at KHRL Valley International Airport, achieving a score of 94.7%. The final approach to runway 17R was initiated from the north, with a heading of 181.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,240 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with a touchdown distance of 1,479 feet, which was considered good. However, the threshold speed was too high at 146 knots, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly above the recommended speed for landing. The touchdown speed of 139 knots was also too fast, suggesting that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touchdown.

Despite these minor issues, the touchdown rate of -161 feet per minute (fpm) was considered good, indicating that the aircraft's descent was well-controlled. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 84°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from a direction of 170°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 4 knots, which helped to reduce the aircraft's ground speed and make the landing more stable.

The total landing distance of 4,492 feet was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft's rotation and deceleration after touchdown.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely on the runway and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. However, there is room for improvement in terms of reducing the threshold speed and touchdown speed to more optimal levels.
