Departure Roll

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

The flight began with the aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KBUF Buffalo Niagara International Airport. This process took approximately 8 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 32, with a takeoff distance of 808 meters, which accounted for 43% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 157 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -1 °C, with a wind speed of 8 knots coming from a direction of 299 °. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 8 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile east of Eggertsville, New York. During this climb, the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,674 feet above sea level to 3,692 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,018 feet, in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which began 1 mile northwest of Tonawanda, New York. This phase lasted for 10 minutes and covered a distance of 39 nautical miles. The aircraft then started its enroute descent, beginning 3 miles southeast of New Toronto, Ontario, Canada. During this descent, the aircraft decreased its altitude from 3,089 feet above sea level to 2,190 feet above sea level, a decrease of 899 feet, in 3 minutes, covering a distance of 7 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 33L at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport was made from the southeast, with a heading of 317.0 °, at an altitude of 1,627 feet above ground level, and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft then landed on runway 33L, which had a length of 2,408 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 117 knots. The touchdown point was 269 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 109 knots, which was considered fast. The touchdown rate was good at -152 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 7.0 meters. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -6 °C, with a wind speed of 6 knots coming from a direction of 290 °. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a headwind of 5 knots. The total landing distance was 1,664 meters, which accounted for 69% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned from the centreline by 15.8 meters.

The aircraft then taxiied to the parking area from the runway, taking approximately 15 minutes and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 60 nautical miles, taking a total of 28 minutes, and the aircraft used 156 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at CYYZ Toronto Lester B. Pearson International Airport, but with some areas for improvement. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 317.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,627 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 33L, which has a length of 2,408 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was too high at 117 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to reduce the touchdown speed. The touchdown point was 269 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to make a more precise touchdown. The touchdown speed of 109 knots was also faster than ideal, and the touchdown rate of -152 feet per minute was good.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.0 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the flare. The local weather conditions were not particularly challenging, with a temperature of -6°C and a wind of 6 knots at 290°. The crosswind was minimal at 3 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots, which helped to reduce the landing distance.

The total landing distance was 1,664 meters, which is 69% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, and it may be worth investigating the factors that contributed to this, such as the touchdown speed and the flare technique. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 15.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the rollout or a failure to maintain alignment.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there are areas for improvement, particularly in terms of reducing the touchdown speed and improving the flare technique. With some adjustments to the approach and landing technique, the pilot may be able to achieve a more precise and efficient landing.
