Top opportunity

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 10 at VEDH Darbhanga in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 85.72 %
Landing Summary

Overall, the aircraft landing score of 85.7% indicates a generally successful landing with some areas for improvement. Let's break down the different phases of the landing to see where adjustments can be made to achieve an even higher score.

During the Approach Phase, it was noted that the descent path was above the glideslope limit. This could have contributed to the slightly high threshold height in the Landing Phase. To improve in this area, pilots should strive to maintain a precise descent path in accordance with the glideslope to ensure a smoother approach.

In the Landing Phase, the threshold height was slightly above the target, but the good landing flare helped in achieving a successful touchdown. It is important to continue working on achieving the ideal threshold height to improve overall landing performance.

The Touchdown Phase had some positive aspects, such as an excellent touchdown rate and on-target speed. However, landing slightly beyond the touchdown zone and off-center from the runway's centerline indicate the need for a more precise touchdown point alignment. Additionally, landing with a 3 kn tailwind is a safety concern that should be avoided in future landings.

Lastly, in the Rollout Phase, the runway alignment was slightly off from the centerline. Pilots should continue to practice maintaining proper runway alignment to ensure safe and efficient rollouts.

Despite these areas for improvement, it is important to acknowledge the strengths of the landing, such as the good landing flare and on-target speed. By focusing on precision in descent path, threshold height, touchdown point alignment, and runway alignment, future landings can achieve an even higher score and contribute to overall flight safety and efficiency. Keep up the good work and continue to strive for excellence in aircraft landings.
