Landing on runway 31L at KPSP Palm Springs International Airport in the Boeing 737-700

Landing Score 99.66 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-700 aircraft successfully landed at KPSP Palm Springs International Airport, achieving a score of 99.7%. The final approach to runway 31L was conducted from the southeast, heading 321.0° at 2 nautical miles and 631 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, and the threshold speed of 130 knots was also satisfactory.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly higher than desired at 126 knots, which may have contributed to a fair touchdown rate of -240 feet per minute (fpm). However, the touchdown distance of 339 meters was within acceptable limits. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.3 meters from the centerline, but this did not appear to have a significant impact on the overall landing performance.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 38°C and a negligible wind of 3 knots at 0°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 2 knots, which suggests that the aircraft was not significantly affected by wind during the landing. The total landing distance of 1,214 meters was 72% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance.

One notable aspect of the landing was the perfect runway rollout alignment, which suggests that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
