Know your rotation speed

Departure Roll

A typical trainer rotates in the mid-50s of knots - a 172 at around 55 KIAS, climbing out at a Vy in the low 70s, though check your own POH rather than memorising Cessna's numbers - and the transferable rule is that Vr sits just above the stall speed in takeoff configuration. Rotate early because "it felt ready" and the aircraft lifts off inside ground effect, where induced drag is reduced, then climbs out of it into more drag. On a marginal-performance day the result is an aircraft that lifts off and then refuses to climb, sagging back towards the runway.

Landing on runway 31 at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 97.74 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport, achieving a score of 97.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 317.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,260 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a smooth final approach, taking into account the runway's length of 12,791 feet and the local weather conditions.

The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed of 106 kt, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother touchdown. The touchdown distance of 1,026 feet was within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed.

Despite a slightly fast touchdown speed of 96 kt, the touchdown rate was smooth at -138 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's descent and speed. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 19 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment or a minor issue with the aircraft's navigation system.

The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 kt at 270°. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 1 kt each, which reduced the risk of a difficult landing. The total landing distance of 3,095 feet was 24% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits.

The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft's speed and direction during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and decision-making skills throughout the approach and landing phases.
