The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 5 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Citation CJ3+, then departed from runway 21 at LSZS Samedan Airport, a small airport located in the Swiss Alps. The takeoff distance was 457 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 118 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of -5°C.
As the aircraft climbed out of Samedan Airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the town of Samedan in the Kanton Graubunden region of Switzerland. The climb was steep, with the aircraft ascending from 6,663 feet above sea level to 24,391 feet above sea level, a total increase of 17,728 feet, in just 6 minutes and covering a distance of 27 nautical miles. This impressive climb was a testament to the aircraft's capabilities.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This cruise phase took place 3 miles south east of the town of Soazza in the Kanton Graubunden region of Switzerland.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its enroute descent, which started 1 mile north west of the town of San Vittore in the Kanton Graubunden region of Switzerland. The descent was gradual, with the aircraft descending from 24,370 feet above sea level to 2,712 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 21,658 feet, in 12 minutes and covering a distance of 21 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 01 at LSZA Lugano Airport was made from the south, with the aircraft heading 2.0 degrees at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,764 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with the touchdown point being 53 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly below the target speed at 99 knots, but the touchdown speed at 88 knots was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -74 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.9 meters, but the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 872 meters, which accounted for 85% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 2 knots at 15 degrees. The crosswind was negligible, and the headwind was 2 knots.
In conclusion, the flight was a successful one, with the aircraft performing well throughout its various phases. The total flight distance was 61 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 27 minutes. The aircraft used 173 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The final approach was conducted from the south, heading 2.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,764 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 01, which has a length of 1,025 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 99 knots. The touchdown point was 53 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight deviation from the intended landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 88 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 8°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 15°. The crosswind component was negligible at 0 knots, while the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions contributed to a relatively stable and predictable landing environment.
The total landing distance of 872 meters was 85% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was reported as very good, suggesting that the aircraft maintained a stable and controlled trajectory during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft demonstrating good control and stability throughout the approach and landing phases.
