Departure

Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.

What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 5.5°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.

Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.

See Departure Climb 3

Below a thousand feet the aeroplane is slow, heavy and close to the ground. A steep turn loses lift, raises the stall speed and flattens the climb just when the gradient matters most. A normal turn on course is a rate one — fifteen degrees or so, twenty-five at the outside, this penalty is to acknowledge when a turn has stopped being a turn and become a manoeuvre.

This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 13 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting overhead KRIC Richmond International Airport and rising from 1,172 feet above sea level to 36,011 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,840 feet in 14 minutes and covering 121 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise, starting 5 miles north of 97VA Singleton Airport Warm Springs, Virginia. This cruise phase lasted for 13 minutes and covered a distance of 285 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles southeast of 8II5 Holt Field Hoagland, Indiana. The descent from 35,994 feet above sea level to 3,007 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,986 feet in 17 minutes and covering 127 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, starting 6 miles northeast of Kenwood, Illinois, and lasting for 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The final descent phase began 1 mile east of KCGX Chicago Meigs Airport, Chicago, Illinois, and the aircraft descended from 3,014 feet above sea level to 1,584 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,430 feet in 3 minutes and covering 6 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 22L at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport was made from the northeast, with a heading of 228.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 964 feet above ground level. The landing on runway 22L was successful, with a runway length of 1,611 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also good at 141 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 253 meters, but the touchdown speed at 136 knots was a little fast. The touchdown rate was fair at -299 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 7 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 12 knots at 280 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 10 knots and a headwind of 7 knots. The total landing distance was 862 meters, which accounted for 53% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

Landing on runway 22L at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport in the Boeing 737-800
Landing Score 98.43 %
Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) on runway 22L. The final approach was initiated from the northeast, heading 228.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 964 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated a high level of proficiency in its approach, achieving a score of 98.4%.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a threshold speed of 141 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown distance of 253 meters was also within acceptable limits. However, the touchdown speed of 136 knots was slightly faster than desired, indicating that the pilots may have been able to make adjustments to reduce the speed before touchdown. The touchdown rate of -299 feet per minute (fpm) was fair, suggesting that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing relatively smoothly.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.9 meters, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and winds of 12 knots from 280°. The crosswind component was 10 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. These conditions may have contributed to the slight misalignment of the touchdown position.

The total landing distance of 862 meters was 53% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to land smoothly and efficiently, with minimal loss of speed or control. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots were able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and bring it to a stop safely.

Overall, the landing of the Boeing 737-800 at Chicago Midway International Airport was a successful one, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
