The Boeing 737 MAX 8 commenced its final approach to runway 22 at DXXX Lomé-Tokoin International Airport from the north-east on a heading of 221.0° at 4 nm and 1,641 ft agl, with temperature 26 °C, wind 4 kt from 210°, a 1 kt cross-wind component and a 4 kt head-wind component. The approach was assessed as unstable at the 1,000 ft gate because the sink rate was too high.
At threshold the aircraft maintained a good threshold height and achieved a good threshold speed of 145 kt.
Touchdown occurred 133 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a good touchdown speed of 137 kt. The vertical speed at touchdown was fair at minus 269 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was very good. The runway length is 3,007 m; total landing distance used was 1,557 m, representing 52 % of the runway.
Rollout alignment was very good throughout the remaining distance.
To convert the high sink rate into a stabilized approach, the crew should refine vertical speed control during the final 1,000 ft segment. Reducing the touchdown rate will further smooth the landing while preserving the excellent alignment already demonstrated.
