The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took 11 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a C750, then departed from runway 26R at Harry Reid International Airport, also known as KLAS. The takeoff distance was 2,787 feet, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 140 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 96 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 17 knots at 239 degrees. The crosswind was 8 knots, while the headwind was 14 knots. After departing from the airport, the enroute climb started approximately 1 mile southwest of Paradise, Nevada. The aircraft climbed from an altitude of 3,188 feet above sea level to 43,743 feet above sea level, an increase of 40,555 feet, in 15 minutes and covering a distance of 62 nautical miles.
Following the climb, the enroute level cruise started 8 miles east of Baker, California, and lasted for 9 minutes, covering a distance of 57 nautical miles. The enroute descent then began 10 miles southeast of Barstow Heights, California, and lasted for 30 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 43,906 feet above sea level to 1,308 feet above sea level, a decrease of 42,598 feet, and covered a distance of 149 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 07 at Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, also known as KSBA, was made from the west, heading 88.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level. The landing was made on runway 07, which has a length of 6,042 feet. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 108 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 537 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 109 knots, and the touchdown rate was very heavy at -888 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 74 feet from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 74 feet from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 73 degrees Fahrenheit and winds of 15 knots at 281 degrees, with a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 15 knots. The total landing distance was 2,205 feet, which is 36% of the runway length.

Aircraft C750 successfully landed at KSBA Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 88.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,266 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot managed to touch down on the runway, but the touchdown speed of 109 kt was slightly above the target speed, indicating a potential loss of control during the landing.
The touchdown distance of 537 feet was within acceptable limits, but the touchdown rate of -888 fpm was extremely heavy, suggesting that the aircraft may have been descending too rapidly during the final stages of the approach. This could be a concern for the safety of the aircraft and its occupants.
One of the most significant issues with this landing was the misalignment of the runway touchdown position, which was 74 feet off the centreline. This could be due to a variety of factors, including a miscalculation of the wind or a failure to properly align the aircraft with the runway during the approach. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 74 feet from the centreline, which could make it difficult for the pilot to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 73°F and a wind speed of 15 kt from 281°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 kt, but the tailwind component was significant at 15 kt. This could have contributed to the misalignment of the runway touchdown position and the runway rollout alignment.
Overall, while the pilot of Aircraft C750 managed to land safely at KSBA Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, there were several issues with the landing that need to be addressed in order to improve the safety and efficiency of future landings.
