The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five 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.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,186 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 382 m 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 4 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-600, then departed from runway 01L at Tampa International Airport (KTPA) in Tampa, Florida. The takeoff distance was 1,161 meters, which was 35% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 142 knots.
As the aircraft climbed to its cruising altitude, it started its enroute climb 1 mile north of KTPA, rising from an initial altitude of 1,080 feet above sea level to 38,756 feet above sea level, an increase of 37,676 feet. This climb took 24 minutes and covered a distance of 172 nautical miles. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered its level cruise phase, which started 11 miles southeast of Homerville, Georgia. This phase lasted for 119 minutes and covered a distance of 848 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent 1 mile south of North Central State Airport (KSFZ) in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The descent took 21 minutes and covered a distance of 119 nautical miles, during which the aircraft dropped from an altitude of 39,265 feet above sea level to 1,315 feet above sea level, a decrease of 37,949 feet.
The final approach to runway 29 at Portland International Jetport (KPWM) was made from the east, with the aircraft heading 275.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,222 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was made on runway 29, which had a length of 2,186 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 138 knots. The touchdown distance was 383 meters, which was 41% of the runway length. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 128 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -106 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,147 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 159 minutes. The aircraft used 6,630 kilograms of fuel during the flight. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 19 degrees Celsius.
The Boeing 737-600 aircraft successfully landed at KPWM Portland International Jetport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach to runway 29 was initiated from the east, with a heading of 275.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,222 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's approach and landing performance were impressive, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 138 knots, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance of 383 meters was also satisfactory, indicating a well-executed landing. However, the touchdown speed of 128 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have been due to various factors such as wind conditions or pilot preference.
Despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, the aircraft's touchdown rate was smooth, at -106 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the aircraft's descent was controlled and stable, resulting in a smooth touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a critical aspect of a safe and successful landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C. The total landing distance of 906 meters was 41% 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 aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, bringing the aircraft to a stop without any issues.
Overall, the Boeing 737-600 aircraft's landing at KPWM Portland International Jetport was a textbook example of a safe and successful landing, with a perfect score of 100.0%. The pilots' skills and experience were evident in their ability to execute a precise and controlled landing, despite the slightly fast touchdown speed.
