Departure

Reduce power to hold the correct climb speed from the start of the climb.

What happened: During the initial climb, the aircraft was flown faster than the target climb speed.

Watch for: Airspeed indicator: the normal climb speed band during the climb

See Departure Climb 1

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

The enroute level cruise started 2 miles south of King Airport (TN72), and it lasted for 2 minutes, covering a distance of 13 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 12 miles east of Gatlinburg, and it took 9 minutes to descend from 20,098 feet above sea level to 3,417 feet above sea level, a decrease of 16,681 feet. During this descent, the aircraft covered a distance of 35 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 17 at Asheville Regional Airport (KAVL) was made from the north, with the aircraft heading 160.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,244 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 17, which had a length of 2,140 meters. The threshold height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 144 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 397 meters, but the touchdown speed was too fast at 138 knots. The touchdown rate was fair at -238 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was excessively misaligned by 122.9 meters from the centerline, and the runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 131.1 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 11 knots at a direction of 120°, with a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,256 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway. The taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

Landing on runway 17 at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport in the Cessna Citation Longitude

Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed on runway 17 at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 160.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,244 feet above ground level. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 2,140 meters, and the threshold height was reported as good.

However, there were some concerns with the aircraft's approach and landing performance. The threshold speed was too high at 144 knots, which may have indicated that the pilot was not fully configured for landing. The touchdown distance was good at 397 meters, but the touchdown speed was too fast at 138 knots. This may have resulted in a higher-than-desired touchdown rate of -238 feet per minute, which was only fair.

The runway touchdown position was also excessively misaligned by 122.9 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's alignment or the aircraft's directional control during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were a temperature of 2°C and winds of 11 knots at 120°, with a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 8 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,256 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. This was a relatively short landing distance, but it may have been influenced by the aircraft's speed and alignment during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 131.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's control of the aircraft during the rollout.

Overall, while the Cessna Longitude aircraft successfully landed on runway 17 at KAVL Asheville Regional Airport, there were some issues with the landing performance that need to be addressed. The pilot may need to work on configuring the aircraft for landing at the correct speed and aligning the aircraft with the runway centerline during the approach and landing.
