Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-MAX8, then departed from runway 17 at MDSD Las Américas International Airport in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The takeoff distance was 1,272 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 162 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 7 knots at 130 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 6 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 2 miles southeast of the airport and ascending from 1,012 feet above sea level to 8,216 feet above sea level, an increase of 7,204 feet in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.

The enroute level cruise phase began 10 miles south of Boca Chica, lasting 3 minutes and covering 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another climb phase, starting 5 miles south of Quisqueya, where it ascended from 9,293 feet above sea level to 34,999 feet above sea level, an increase of 25,706 feet in 15 minutes, covering a distance of 10 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase resumed 2 miles north of Boca Chica, lasting 63 minutes and covering 469 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, starting 66 miles north of Santa Marta, Colombia, and descending from 35,245 feet above sea level to 4,064 feet above sea level, a decrease of 31,181 feet in 23 minutes, covering a distance of 135 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise phase resumed briefly, starting 2 miles southwest of Turbana, lasting 2 minutes and covering 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered its final descent phase, starting 4 miles southwest of Turbana, and descending from 4,091 feet above sea level to 1,267 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,824 feet in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 01 at SKCG Rafael Nuñez International Airport was made from the south, with a heading of 2.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,252 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown distance of 354 meters and a touchdown speed of 135 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -222 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees. The crosswind was 1 knot, and the headwind was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 1,766 meters, which accounted for 69% of the runway. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 16.4 meters from the centerline.

The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took just 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 657 nautical miles, taking 120 minutes, and the aircraft used 4,651 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 01 at SKCG Rafael Nuñez International Airport in the Boeing 737 MAX 8
Landing Score 93.69 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 aircraft successfully landed at SKCG Rafael Nuñez International Airport, achieving a score of 93.7%. The final approach to runway 01 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 2.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,252 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed of 140 knots was also satisfactory.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated a good touchdown distance of 354 meters, and the touchdown speed of 135 knots was within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown rate of -222 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the aircraft may have experienced a slightly higher-than-desired rate of descent during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at the moment of touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 31°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was zero. These conditions were favorable for the landing, and the aircraft was able to maintain a stable approach and touchdown.

Despite the successful landing, there was a notable issue with the runway rollout alignment. The aircraft deviated from the centerline by 16.4 meters, which may have been due to a variety of factors, including pilot error, aircraft performance, or other external influences. This deviation is a concern, as it may indicate a loss of control or a failure to maintain proper alignment during the rollout phase of the landing.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement, particularly with regard to the touchdown rate and runway rollout alignment. These issues will need to be addressed in order to achieve a higher level of performance and safety.
