During takeoff, the aircraft lifted off at a speed of 137 knots, covering a distance of 833 meters, which was 32% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were a temperature of 10°C, with a wind speed of 18 knots at 220°, resulting in a 2-knot crosswind and an 18-knot headwind.

After takeoff, the aircraft began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile west of Alcoa, Tennessee. The climb took 5 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended from 1,962 feet above sea level to 16,661 feet above sea level, an increase of 14,699 feet. The aircraft covered a distance of 19 nautical miles during this climb.

The enroute level cruise started 2 miles southwest of Sevierville, Tennessee, and lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, starting 4 miles southwest of TT48 Wingman Aerodrome Dandridge, Tennessee. The descent took 8 minutes, during which the aircraft descended from 15,932 feet above sea level to 4,158 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,774 feet. The aircraft covered a distance of 44 nautical miles during this descent.

The enroute level cruise started again 2 miles northeast of 97TN Kite Field Jonesborough, Tennessee, and lasted for 12 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport (KTRI), approaching from the northeast at a heading of 223.0° and 4 nautical miles from the airport.

The landing on runway 23 at KTRI was slightly above the target threshold height at 59 feet above ground level, but the threshold speed was excessively high at 157 knots. The touchdown point was 566 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 139 knots, which was too fast. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -78 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 12.5 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 6°C, with a wind speed of 15 knots at 220°, resulting in a 1-knot crosswind and a 15-knot headwind. The total landing distance was 1,752 meters, which was 72% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 13.0 meters from the centerline.

Landing on runway 23 at KTRI Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport in the Cessna Longitude

Landing Score 77.03 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed at KTRI Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 23 was initiated from the north east, heading 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,165 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the touchdown point was 566 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have misjudged the landing distance.

The touchdown speed of 139 knots was also too fast, which could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially led to a longer rollout distance. However, the touchdown rate of -78 feet per minute was excellent, indicating that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent effectively. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned by 12.5 meters from the centerline, which could have made the landing more challenging.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 6°C and a wind speed of 15 knots from 220°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 15 knots, which would have helped to slow the aircraft down during the approach. The runway length at KTRI Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport is 2,439 meters, which is more than sufficient to accommodate the aircraft's landing distance.

The total landing distance of 1,752 meters was 72% of the runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to stop the aircraft more quickly if they had been able to touch down closer to the touchdown zone. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 13.0 meters from the centerline, which could have made it more difficult for the pilot to control the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, while the Cessna Longitude aircraft was able to land safely at KTRI Tri-Cities Regional TN/VA Airport, the landing was not without its issues. The pilot may have benefited from additional training or practice to improve their landing skills and reduce the risk of errors during the approach and landing phases.
