Flight narrative

The flight in question took off from Des Moines International Airport, specifically from runway 13, after a taxiing period of just 5 minutes. The aircraft, a Vision Jet, began its departure roll and took to the skies, reaching liftoff speed of 96 kt. At the time, local weather conditions were warm, with a temperature of 82 °F, and moderate wind blowing at 9 kt from an 80 ° direction.

As the aircraft started its enroute climb, it began rising from an initial elevation of 1,960 ft to a maximum altitude of 30,456 ft, a gain of 28,496 ft over a distance of 75 nm in 22 minutes. At this point, the aircraft had left the vicinity of Des Moines International Airport and was cruising through the skies.

Continuing its journey, the Vision Jet embarked on a lengthy period of level cruise, lasting a total of 132 minutes and covering a distance of 600 nm. This segment of the flight took place approximately 6 miles south of Stanton, Iowa, marking a significant portion of the aircraft's total flight time.

In preparation for descent, the aircraft began its downward trajectory 17 miles north of Vaughn, New Mexico, from 30,701 ft asl to 9,137 ft asl, a decrease of 21,564 ft over a span of just 14 minutes, covering 66 nm. This marked the first descent phase of the flight, bringing the aircraft closer to its destination.

Following a brief level cruise of 2 minutes, covering 7 nm near the Albuquerque International Sunport, the aircraft commenced its final descent phase. Starting from 4 miles west of Albuquerque, New Mexico, the Vision Jet descended from 9,124 ft asl to 6,608 ft asl over a distance of 3 nm in just 4 minutes.

For the final approach, the aircraft aimed for runway 08 at KABQ Albuquerque International Sunport, aligning itself at a heading of 90.0 ° from the west, situated at an altitude of 4 nm and 1282 ft agl.

Upon landing, the Vision Jet touched down successfully on runway 08, with an excellent touchdown rate of -57 fpm at 62 kt. However, the touchdown was misaligned by 28 ft from the runway centreline. Local weather conditions at this point were characterized by a moderate temperature of 75 °F and a wind speed of 12 kt from a 270 ° direction, generating a small tailwind.

In terms of landing distance, the aircraft used just 1,140 ft, equalling 15 % of the runway's length. Following the landing, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 26 ft from the centreline.

After successfully landing, the Vision Jet proceeded to the parking area, where it taxiied for about 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. In total, the flight clocked an impressive 189 minutes of flight time, covering a distance of 758 nm and consuming a total of 1,218 lbs of fuel.

Landing on runway 08 at KABQ Albuquerque International Sunport in the Cirrus Vision SF50
Landing Score 96.06 %
Landing Summary

In this aircraft landing evaluation, a Vision Jet achieved a score of 96.1%. The final approach to runway 08 at KABQ Albuquerque International Sunport was conducted from the west, heading 90.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,282 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed safely on the runway, taking advantage of its 12,760-foot length.

Upon touchdown, the threshold height and threshold speed were deemed good, indicating a well-executed approach. The touchdown distance of 1,140 feet and touchdown speed of 62 knots were also considered good, showcasing the pilot's ability to smoothly bring the aircraft to a stop. The touchdown rate of -57 feet per minute was rated as excellent, demonstrating exceptional control during the landing process.

However, there were some deviations from ideal performance. The aircraft's rollout after landing was slightly misaligned, veering 26 feet off the centreline. Although the margin of error was relatively small, it may indicate a minor issue with the pilot's alignment during rollout. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was 28 feet off centreline, which could have contributed to the minor misalignment during rollout.

Weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 75°F and a moderate wind blowing at 12 knots from a 270-degree direction. Although the crosswind component was minimal, the tailwind component of 12 knots may have required some adjustments to maintain control during the landing. Overall, the evaluation suggests that the pilot performed well, with only minor deviations in alignment during rollout.
