Landing on runway 11 at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport in the Boeing 737-800

Landing Score 69.26 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 113.0° at 3 nautical miles and 1,703 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 11, which has a length of 2,414 meters.

The threshold height at 114 feet agl was significantly higher than the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. However, the threshold speed of 136 knots was only slightly above the target, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and was able to adjust the aircraft's speed accordingly. The touchdown speed of 123 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -393 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent.

Despite the successful touchdown, the landing was not without its issues. The touchdown point was 267 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have been slightly long on the approach. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 14.9 meters from the centerline, which could have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the approach path.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slight deviations in the landing.

The total landing distance of 2,087 meters was 86% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.7 meters from the centerline, which could have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the approach path.

Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the pilot was able to maintain control and execute a safe touchdown. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of maintaining a more precise approach path and aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline.
