Flight narrative

The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 15L at KIAH George Bush International Airport in 11 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 15L, the aircraft used 865 m of runway, representing 24 % of the available length, and lifted off at 141 kt. Ambient conditions were 34 °C with a wind of 7 kt from 170°, a 2 kt cross-wind component and a 7 kt head-wind component.

Climb commenced approximately 1 mile south of KIAH, with the jet accelerating from 1,066 ft asl to 36,998 ft asl, an altitude gain of 35,931 ft achieved in 18 minutes while traversing 112 nm.

Level cruise began 6 nm northwest of Buffalo, Texas, and persisted for 66 minutes, during which the aircraft covered 546 nm at cruise altitude.

Descent was initiated 12 nm west of the 9V7 Eads Mun Eads airport in Colorado, descending from 36,999 ft asl to 6,959 ft asl, a loss of 30,040 ft over 22 minutes and a distance of 127 nm.

The final approach to runway 17R at KDEN Denver International Airport was flown from the north on a heading of 179.0°, intercepting the glide path at 4 nm and 1,559 ft agl.

Landing on runway 17R was executed with a threshold speed of 121 kt; touchdown occurred 443 m beyond the touchdown zone at 107 kt and a vertical speed of minus 333 fpm. The runway length is 3,665 m, the threshold height is 73 ft agl, and the total landing distance measured 1,800 m, equivalent to 49 % of the runway. Weather at the time was 36 °C with a wind of 21 kt from 180°, no cross-wind and a 21 kt head-wind.

Runway rollout alignment was reported as perfect, confirming the aircraft remained on the centreline throughout the deceleration phase.

After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 795 nm, required 117 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 1,695 kg of fuel.

Landing on runway 17R at KDEN Denver International Airport in the Cessna 750 Citation X
Landing Score 91.2 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna 750 Citation X made a final approach to runway 17R at KDEN from the north, tracking a heading of 179.0° at 4 nm and 1,559 ft agl, with a temperature of 36 °C, a head-wind of 21 kt from 180°, and no cross-wind component.

At the threshold the aircraft was 73 ft agl, which was well above the target height, while the threshold speed of 121 kt was recorded as good.

Touchdown occurred 443 m beyond the designated touchdown zone; the aircraft was aligned perfectly with the runway centreline, the touchdown speed was 107 kt and the rate of descent was firm at minus 333 fpm.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,800 m, representing 49 % of the runway length, and the runway rollout alignment remained perfect.

To bring the touchdown point within the intended zone, the approach should be refined to achieve the target threshold height and to aim for the standard aim point approximately 300 m (1,000 ft) down the runway, ensuring a stabilized flare. Adjusting the descent profile will also help moderate the firm touchdown rate while preserving the good speed and alignment already demonstrated.
