Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 touched down smoothly on runway 33 at KCHS Charleston International Airport, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 150 kt. The aircraft's approach quality was excellent, with a steady descent from 948 ft agl to the runway surface. The pilot maintained a heading of 323.0 °, aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline as it descended.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, the touchdown characteristics were generally good, with a touchdown distance of 1,050 ft.
