Next time

Arrival

Fly the aircraft onto the runway at the aim point instead of holding it off and letting it float further down the runway.

What happened: This landing touched down well beyond the target point on the runway, with nothing else in the approach or flare accounting for it.

Watch for: Aim point markings: touchdown at the target point on the runway.

See Arrival Touchdown

The rudder input is a changing profile through the roll rather than one that is held. So the demand on your right foot starts large at power application, eases as speed builds and the rudder gains authority, then jumps again at rotation.

A quick rotation

The nose came up at 146 kt against the 147 kt rotate speed, and rose at 3.6° a second, faster than the 2.6 to 3.5 other Boeing 737 MAX 8 pilots fly.

The rotation started on speed but the nose came up quickly. A fast pull raises the nose faster than the aircraft can lift off, which brings the tail closer to the runway. Pull smoothly at the normal rate for this aircraft and let it fly off at its own attitude.

Plan view the roll down the 3,091 m runway.

Rolled from 125 m in, drifted left of the centreline, 2.5 m at the widest, and lifted off 1.5 m left. Airborne 45 % of the way down the runway, before the 75 % line.

How to read this

The roll from above, with your left at the top. The line is where the wheels went, and "widest" is the furthest you drifted off the centreline. Lifting off before the amber 75 % line gets full marks for the roll length. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way.

Side view from the start of the roll to the end of Climb 3 at 902 ft.

Reached 35 ft with 1,334 m of runway left; gear up at 35 ft, inside the 400 ft that gets full marks; then climbing at 2,400 fpm on average to 902 ft.

How to read this

The takeoff from the side: the height above the runway against the distance along it. The numbers along the runway are the speeds reached at each point. Lifting off in the amber last quarter of the runway costs marks for the roll length. The dark stretch of the roll is the run with the nose up and the wheels still on, with its length and time under the runway. The gear-up ring is coloured by its mark. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, scored on its average speed against the target.

Speed and pitch from brake release to the end of the climb, against time.

How to read this

Two traces from brake release: the airspeed on top, and below it the pitch, which is how far the nose is above the horizon. The dashed green line is the speed to rotate at for this aircraft at its weight, and the green dot is where the nose started to come up. The grey band is the run between the nose coming up and the wheels leaving the runway. The figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up, in degrees a second. The rotation detail below draws the rotation against the rates for this aircraft and its tail-strike pitch, where the slope reads properly. The grey dashed line across the pitch is the attitude held from 35 ft to the end: a nose held steady is a climb speed that holds, and the airspeed trace sits directly above it to compare. The shaded stretch is Climb 3, the part of the climb scored on holding the climb speed.

Rotation detail the pitch over the seconds from rotation to 35 ft, where the slope reads properly.

How to read this

The pitch over the seconds from the nose starting to come up to 35 ft, stretched so the slope reads properly. The green dot is where the nose started up, the grey band runs to the wheels leaving, and the figures at liftoff are the pitch then and how fast the nose came up. The two dashed green lines rising from the rotation point are 2.6 to 3.5° a second, the middle half of rotation rates flown by other Boeing 737 MAX 8 pilots over the last 180 days (80 takeoffs); the grey pair are 2 to 3° a second, the rates airliners are rotated at. A trace steeper than both green lines is a faster rotation than most, one shallower than both a slower one. The red dashed line is 11°, the pitch at which this aircraft's tail touches the runway with the wheels still on it, drawn from rotation to liftoff only: once the wheels leave, every foot climbed adds tail clearance.

The stabilisation gates

Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.

When the approach was stable

Every check met from 4 nm to the threshold.

How to read this

Each line is one of the gate checks, run along the whole final rather than only at the gates: green where it would have passed, amber where it would not. The glideslope, centreline and speed lines use the bands in the charts beside this card. The sink rate is allowed what the glideslope needs at your ground speed plus 600 fpm, the wings 10° of bank, and the gear and flap are read from when you moved the levers. The bottom line is green where every check held at once, ignoring blips shorter than 0.2 nm, and the sentence above it says from where it held to the threshold. A ring is a stabilisation gate, where the checks in the table were taken.

The glideslope is the steady descent path to the aiming point, 305 m past the threshold: 3° here, which is about 320 ft for every nautical mile out, crossing the threshold at about 50 ft. The row under the distances is the height it puts you at. Inside the green band your path is drawn green; outside it, amber. A ring is a stabilisation gate: green when every check there passed, amber with the failed checks named beside it.

Plan distance off the extended centreline, your left at the top, with the 1° band. Sideways distances are drawn 28× larger than distances along the final.

Inside the 1° band all the way from 4 nm, never more than 13 m off the centreline.

How to read this

Looking down from above, flying left to right towards the runway: up the page is left of the centreline, down is right. Sideways distances are stretched so that small drifts show, so a line that looks wild here may be only a few tens of feet. The labels are how far off you were at each distance, amber when outside the band.

Speed against the approach speed. The green band runs from 5 kt slow to 33 kt fast at the 1,000 ft gate, closing to 20 at 500 ft and 10 at the threshold.

Inside the speed band all the way, between +7 kt and +12 kt on the approach speed of 132 kt.

How to read this

Your indicated airspeed down the final, against the approach speed for this aircraft at its landing weight. The band allows 5 kt slow and more on the fast side further out, closing as you get lower, because the speed is expected to come off on the way down. The figures are knots above (+) or below (−) the approach speed.

The flare held the target profile well

The aircraft floated down the runway before touching. Touchdown was 772 m past the threshold. Threshold speed was not the cause here - hold the aim point on the approach and let the aircraft settle rather than holding it off, and the touchdown comes back to the numbers.

Side view — the last 2,121 m of the approach.

Crossed the threshold at 51 ft, close to the 50 ft target; began the flare late, at 8 ft. Touched down 772 m in, 467 m past the ideal 305 m.

How to read this

The last stretch of the approach and the touchdown, from the side. The height is stretched so that the last few feet show: 80 ft top to bottom, against 2,121 m across. The dashed line is the ideal, 50 ft over the threshold and down 305 m in. The flare ring is where you began raising the nose, and "descent slowed" is where the sink came off; the figures beside them are the sink rate, pitch and speed at that point.

Sink and pitch — through the flare, lined up with the side view.

The sink went from 360 fpm at the flare to 200 fpm at touchdown. The pitch barely changed. Into the flare at 139 kt, 7 kt over the 132 kt approach speed, and 132 kt at touchdown.

Lined up with the side view above, so a point on one sits under the same point of the other. On top, how fast you were coming down: 0 is level, and −600 is 600 ft a minute down. Below, the pitch. In a flare the nose comes up and the descent slows towards 0. The figure at the touchdown line is your touchdown rate.

Plan view — the first 2,121 m of the 3,709 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.

Touched down 8.4 m left of the centreline, and steered back to 0.6 m right by the end of the rollout. Little crosswind (1 kt): nothing to correct for. Touched down straight, 4.1° of bank.

How to read this

The runway from above, with your left at the top. Touching down inside the green bracket scores full marks for the distance. The shaded part is the rollout, up to where it ended. The arrow beside the runway is the crosswind, pointing the way the air was moving, so it pushed the aircraft that way. The wind is the one recorded at the landing, split along the runway (headwind or tailwind) and across it. To hold the centreline in a crosswind the nose points a little into wind - the crab - and is straightened with rudder just before the wheels touch, often with the into-wind wing lowered to stop the drift. The sentence gives the nose against the direction you were actually moving as the wheels touched, and the steepest bank as they touched, the figure the touchdown's Bank tile marks. The rest of it is shown for reading, not marked.

The stop — touchdown to taxi speed.

From 139 kt at touchdown to taxi speed (30 kt) in 35 s, an average deceleration of 0.17 g.

How to read this

Your ground speed from the moment the wheels touched until you were down to taxi speed, against the distance rolled. A steep line is hard braking, a shallow one a long, gentle roll. For scale, an airliner's lowest autobrake setting decelerates at about 0.15 g, a medium one about 0.3 g. Shown for reading; not marked.

Flight narrative

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 departed from runway 28 at GMMX Menara Airport. The take-off roll was 1,404 m, using 45 % of the runway, and rotation occurred at 146 kt. Local weather was 24 °C with a wind of 5 kt from 300°, a 2 kt crosswind and a 5 kt headwind.

Initial climb to 1,000 ft agl took 20 seconds, averaging 2,083 fpm and reaching 184 kt at the top of the climb. The aircraft then climbed from 2,495 ft asl to 15,973 ft asl in 3 minutes, covering 16 nm while remaining overhead GMMX Menara Airport.

Cruise was maintained at 16,000 ft asl for 10 minutes, covering 51 nm, beginning about 12 nm north-west of Marrakesh. Descent began from 15,389 ft asl to 1,946 ft asl in 12 minutes, covering 55 nm, starting roughly 15 nm east of Sidi Bennour.

During final approach to runway 35L at GMMN Mohammed V International Airport, descent from 1,346 ft agl to 90 ft agl was completed in 94 seconds. Stabilisation checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway were met for gear down, landing flap, sink rate, glideslope, centreline, speed and wings level. The landing gear was lowered at 2,282 ft agl at 225 kt, and the final flap position 8 was selected at 1,718 ft agl at 169 kt.

The aircraft landed on runway 35L, whose length is 3,709 m. The threshold speed was slightly above target at 141 kt. The flare was described as great; the aircraft floated before touchdown. Touchdown occurred 356 m beyond the touchdown zone at a speed of 132 kt and a rate of -196 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 10.0 m from the centreline, but there was no bounce. Total landing distance was 2,040 m, 55 % of the runway, and the rollout alignment was very good.

After landing, taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 132 nm, the flight time was 38 minutes and fuel consumption was 1,243 kg.
