The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 5,000 ft of the approach.
Plan view — the first 5,000 ft of the 8,988 ft runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 1,273 ft touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 10 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, then departed from runway 07 at Juan Santamaría International Airport (MROC) in Costa Rica. The takeoff distance was 6,164 feet, which was 75% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 153 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 76°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 341°. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 0 knots. As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it encountered a more significant increase in temperature and wind speed.
The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile south east of Alajuela, Costa Rica, where the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 4,188 feet above sea level (asl) to 12,838 ft asl, an increase of 8,650 feet in just 4 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 16 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 10 nautical miles, starting 1 mile west of Zarcero, Costa Rica.
The next enroute climb phase began 3 miles south west of Florencia, Costa Rica, where the aircraft climbed from 13,315 ft asl to 34,299 ft asl, an increase of 20,984 feet in 14 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 104 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 31 minutes and covered a distance of 236 nautical miles, starting 12 miles south of Hato Grande Airport in Nicaragua.
The next enroute climb phase started 14 miles north west of Yoro Airport in Honduras, where the aircraft climbed from 34,321 ft asl to 37,440 ft asl, an increase of 3,119 feet in 3 minutes. This climb covered a distance of 27 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which lasted for 111 minutes and covered a distance of 818 nautical miles, starting 1 mile north east of Tela, Honduras.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its descent from an altitude of 37,304 ft asl to 1,341 ft asl, a decrease of 35,963 feet in 31 minutes. This descent covered a distance of 140 nautical miles, starting 92 miles south east of Galveston, Texas, United States.
The final approach to runway 26R at George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport (KIAH) was made from the east, heading 270.0° at an altitude of 1,237 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 130 knots and a touchdown distance of 1,278 feet. The touchdown rate was fair at -205 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 160°. The crosswind component was 12 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. The total landing distance was 4,462 feet, which was 50% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 1,362 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 217 minutes. The aircraft used
The Boeing 737-800 aircraft successfully landed on runway 26R at KIAH George Bush Intercontinental Houston Airport, achieving a score of 99.8%. The final approach was conducted from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,237 feet above ground level (agl).
The aircraft's performance during the landing was impressive, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 134 knots. The touchdown distance was also within acceptable limits at 1,278 feet, and the touchdown speed was maintained at 130 knots, which is a good indicator of the pilot's control and precision. However, the touchdown rate was slightly below average at -205 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slight loss of control during the final stages of the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were hot and windy, with a temperature of 90°F and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 160°. The crosswind component was 12 knots, while the tailwind component was 4 knots. Despite these challenging conditions, the aircraft's performance was not significantly affected, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance of 4,462 feet was 50% of the runway length, which is a good indication of the aircraft's braking performance and the pilot's ability to control the aircraft during the rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
Overall, the Boeing 737-800 aircraft demonstrated excellent performance during the landing, with a high score and a perfect runway touchdown and rollout alignment. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the aircraft's ability to navigate the challenging weather conditions and achieve a safe and controlled landing.
