Next time

Arrival

Hold the aim point and wait for the speed to bleed before raising the nose, starting the flare within the normal band instead of 64 ft.

What happened: The flare began at 64 ft, 19 ft earlier than the normal band.

Watch for: Radio altimeter: start the flare within the normal flare band

See Arrival Landing

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 7 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-900, then departed from runway 27L at Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL). The takeoff distance was 4,376 feet, which accounted for 42% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 154 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 86°F and winds of 16 knots at 9°. The crosswind was 15 knots, while the tailwind was 7 knots. As the aircraft took off, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the Philadelphia Seaplane Base Essington (9N2). The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 1,035 feet above sea level to 31,674 feet, an increase of 30,639 feet in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 44 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 2 miles southwest of Vista Center (New Jersey, United States). This phase lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 60 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began overhead Huntington (New York, United States). The descent took the aircraft from an altitude of 31,479 feet to 1,292 feet, a decrease of 30,187 feet in 30 minutes, covering a distance of 142 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 33L at Logan International Airport (KBOS) was made from the southeast, with a heading of 315.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,268 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 33L, which had a length of 9,200 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 122 knots. The touchdown distance was 124 feet, and the touchdown speed was 120 knots, both of which were good. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -287 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 11 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 75°F and winds of 16 knots at 289°. The crosswind was 7 knots, while the headwind was 14 knots. The total landing distance was 2,762 feet, which accounted for 30% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good.

The final phase of the flight involved taxiing to the parking area from the runway, which took 4 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 253 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 63 minutes. The aircraft used 5,806 pounds of fuel during the flight.
