Landing on runway 15C at KSPS Wichita Falls Municipal Airport / Sheppard Air Force Base in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 90.62 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KSPS Wichita Falls Municipal Airport / Sheppard Air Force Base, achieving a score of 90.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 158.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,236 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 1,078 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant distance. The touchdown speed of 102 knots was also higher than the recommended speed, indicating that the pilot may have been able to slow down more effectively. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -120 feet per minute (fpm), which suggests that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the headwind component was zero.

The total landing distance of 4,985 feet was 50% of the runway length, which is a relatively long distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, the pilot demonstrated good control and alignment during the landing.
