The Boeing 737-600 aircraft began its journey when it started taxiing from the parking to the runway at the NVSS Santo Pekoa International Airport. This taxing process took only 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. Once it reached the runway, the aircraft took off from runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 904 meters, which accounted for 46% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 146 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff provided a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, with a gentle wind of 10 knots at a direction of 116 degrees, resulting in a significant headwind of 9 knots and a minimal crosswind of 2 knots. As the aircraft departed the airport, it initiated an enroute climb, rising from 1,100 feet above sea level to 39,073 feet in a remarkable 38 minutes, covering a distance of 299 nautical miles. This climb was a significant aspect of the flight, demonstrating the aircraft's impressive capabilities.

After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft began its enroute level cruise, flying at a specific latitude and longitude of -14.9994453 and 172.3826617, respectively, for 76 minutes, covering a distance of 818 nautical miles. Although the flight's enroute climb was notable, it was the enroute level cruise that formed the majority of the flight time.

As the aircraft approached its destination, it initiated a steep enroute descent from 38,971 feet above sea level to 3,936 feet in just 13 minutes, covering a distance of 139 nautical miles. It then leveled off once more, flying for 5 minutes at a distance of 19 nautical miles, 19 miles west of Leone in the Western District of America Samoa.

Upon reaching the final approach phase, the aircraft prepared to land at the NSTU Pago Pago International Airport from the southwest, heading 58.0 degrees at an altitude of approximately 4 nautical miles and 1,370 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on runway 05, a 2,498-meter runway, with a slightly faster than target speed of 135 knots and a touchdown distance of 231 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly higher than the target value of 128 knots.

The total landing distance accounted for 30% of the runway's length, totaling 740 meters. The runway rollout alignment was exceptional, and the aircraft came to a stop without any issues. Taxiing from the runway to the parking took just 1 minute, concluding the flight. Overall, the flight had a total distance of 1,281 nautical miles, using a total of 7,133 kilograms of fuel and completing the journey in 139 minutes.

Landing on runway 05 at NSTU Pago Pago International Airport in the Boeing 737-600

Landing Score 98.68 %

Landing Summary

The Boeing 737-600 aircraft completed a successful landing at NSTU Pago Pago International Airport, showcasing exceptional flying skills and control. Final approach was executed from the southwest with a heading of 58.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles, while maintaining an altitude of 1,370 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's precision in navigating towards the runway was evident in the perfect alignment during the touchdown phase.

Upon landing on runway 05, which measures 2,498 meters in length, the pilots achieved a good threshold height, demonstrating accurate control and timing. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 135 kt, which could be attributed to the aircraft's weight, altitude, and atmospheric conditions. However, the pilots effectively managed the descent, ensuring a smooth touchdown at a speed of 128 kt.

The touchdown distance of 231 meters was considered good, indicating that the pilots maintained a steady approach and managed their descent effectively. A slight deviation from the target touchdown speed was observed, but the speed was still within acceptable limits. Furthermore, the firm touchdown rate of -323 fpm demonstrated that the aircraft touched down firmly on the runway, reducing the risk of wheel shimmy or aircraft bounce.

The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 25°C and a wind speed of 9 kt, blowing at 117°. The crosswind component of 8 kt and headwind component of 5 kt presented a moderate challenge to the pilots, who skillfully navigated the aircraft to align with the runway. The total landing distance of 740 meters, which accounts for only 30% of the runway length, highlights the pilots' ability to optimize their descent and maintain control of the aircraft throughout the approach phase.

Upon landing, the runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, showing that the pilots successfully managed the aircraft's deceleration and maintained directional control. The overall performance of the Boeing 737-600 aircraft during the landing operation was impressive, with a score of 98.7% indicating that the pilots adhered to standard operating procedures and safely executed the landing.
