What went well

Touchdown 325 m in — inside the full-score zone
Threshold crossed at 30 ft and 143 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 1.30 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown rate was -475 fpm at 41 %, −0.81 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 79 %, −0.34 points
Departure Climb 3 — scored 98.36 %, −0.11 points

Next time

Arrival

Begin the flare with progressive back pressure and keep it coming until the sink is arrested, rather than flying it on flat.

What happened: The nose was barely raised in the flare and little of the sink was taken out, flying the aircraft onto the runway. This pattern usually carries through to a firm touchdown with a noticeable sink rate.

Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: a smoothly reducing sink through the normal flare band, not a steady rate into the runway.

See Arrival LandingArrival Touchdown

There are several things that can go wrong during the flare, carrying too much speed over the threshold, starting the flare at the wrong height and inconsistent flight control inputs, all contribute to a poor flare resulting in a hard touchdown or a float down the runway.

Flight narrative

Departing from Memphis International Airport, the Boeing 737-MAX8 began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. As it rolled down runway 36L, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 153 knots, clearing the ground at 60% of the runway's length, which was 1,709 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from a direction of 84 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.

As the aircraft climbed away from Memphis, it began its enroute climb, which started 1 mile northwest of the airport and continued for 11 minutes, covering a distance of 110 nautical miles. The aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 1,273 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 36,756 feet, an increase of 35,483 feet. Following this climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 14 minutes and covered 149 nautical miles, before beginning its descent towards Chicago Midway International Airport. The descent phase was initiated 2 miles northeast of the Ameritech Center Heliport and continued for 16 minutes, covering 139 nautical miles, before the aircraft leveled off again for a brief period near Rossi's Farm Airport.

As the aircraft approached its final destination, it began its final descent, which started 1 mile southwest of Crest Hill and continued for 6 minutes, covering 19 nautical miles. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 6,001 feet above sea level to 1,990 feet, before making a smooth touchdown on runway 04R at Chicago Midway International Airport. The landing was characterized by a threshold speed of 144 knots, a touchdown distance of 328 meters, and a touchdown rate of -350 feet per minute. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area, a process that took 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 432 nautical miles, and the aircraft used 2,827 kilograms of fuel during the journey, which lasted a total of 57 minutes.

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-MAX8 touched down on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport with a score of 98.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, aligning with the centerline at 43.0°, and began its descent from 4 nautical miles out at an altitude of 1,371 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 144 kt, which was within the acceptable range.

The touchdown speed of 139 kt was slightly above the ideal speed, resulting in a firm touchdown rate of -350 fpm. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating precise control and coordination from the pilots. The touchdown distance of 328 meters was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating a well-executed landing.

Following touchdown, the aircraft rolled out on the runway, maintaining perfect alignment with the centerline. The total landing distance of 953 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length, was satisfactory. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 3°C and a headwind of 19 kt, presented a moderate challenge to the pilots, but they were able to navigate the aircraft safely to the runway. Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a controlled and efficient manner.
