What went well

Touched down at -109 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 1,441 ft in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 6.2 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft, then overspeed warning; speed limits at 53 %, −1.56 points
Arrival Taxi — landing lights; peak taxi speed 27 kt at 87 %, −0.42 points
Arrival Landing — Threshold speed was well above target at 109 kt. at 92 %, −0.10 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

The descent was from an altitude of 23,999 feet above sea level to 3,263 feet above sea level, a decrease of 20,736 feet in 13 minutes, covering a distance of 68 nautical miles.

After the descent, the aircraft entered another level cruise phase, which started 2 miles east of Overbrook in Kansas. This phase of the flight lasted for just 3 minutes and covered a distance of 7 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 31 at the KFOE Topeka Regional Airport, approaching from the southeast at a heading of 317.0° and at an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level, 4 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 31 was successful, with a touchdown distance of 1,441 feet, which is well within the runway length of 12,791 feet. The touchdown speed was a little fast at 99 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -103 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was also excellent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°, with a slight crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 2,807 feet, which is 22% of the runway length. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 31 at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 99.01 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport, achieving a score of 99.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 317.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the runway's length of 12,791 feet and its orientation.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 109 knots. This indicates that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 1,441 feet was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's energy and touch down smoothly.

However, the touchdown speed of 99 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly longer rollout distance. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate of -103 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating that the pilot had maintained control over the aircraft's descent and avoided any hard landings.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component, making the landing even more challenging. The pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft through these conditions and achieve a very good runway touchdown alignment is a testament to their skill and experience.

The total landing distance of 2,807 feet was only 22% of the runway's length, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's energy and speed to achieve a short and controlled rollout. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control over the aircraft's direction and speed during the critical phase of the landing.

Overall, this landing was a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing, with the pilot demonstrating exceptional skill and control over the aircraft. The 99.0% score is a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance.
