A level cruise segment commenced 2 nm northeast of West Concord, lasting 15 minutes and extending 117 nm.

A second climb started 2 nm southeast of Fayette, raising the aircraft from 21,639 ft asl to 24,330 ft asl, a gain of 2,690 ft in 2 minutes and covering 12 nm.

The next cruise phase began overhead Strawberry Point, lasting 5 minutes and spanning 46 nm.

Descent number one originated 3 nm northwest of KOQW Maquoketa Municipal Airport, descending from 24,699 ft asl to 21,694 ft asl, a loss of 3,005 ft in 3 minutes while traveling 29 nm.

A further cruise segment started 1 nm northwest of Princeton, lasting 12 minutes and covering 92 nm.

Descent number two began 2 nm east of KOGL Oglesby Airport, dropping from 21,329 ft asl to 2,425 ft asl, a decrease of 18,903 ft in 13 minutes and covering 66 nm.

The final approach to runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport was executed from the southwest, on a heading of 47.0°, at 2 nm and 1,742 ft agl.

A go-around was initiated on runway 04R at KMDW when the aircraft reached 5,358 ft agl, aborting the approach and climbing away.

Subsequent landing on runway 04R, whose length is 5,922 ft, recorded a threshold speed of 134 kt, a touchdown point 474 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and a touchdown speed of 122 kt. The aircraft touched down with a rate of minus 182 fpm and perfect runway-alignment. Local weather at the time was temperature 70 °F, wind 6 kt from 080°, a 4 kt crosswind component and a 5 kt headwind. Total landing distance was 2,666 ft, representing 45 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.

Runway rollout proceeded without deviation, maintaining the perfect alignment noted at touchdown.

The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 4 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

In total, the flight covered 478 nm, required 89 minutes of elapsed time, and consumed 3,739 lb of fuel.

Landing on runway 04R at KMDW Chicago Midway International Airport in the Cessna Citation Longitude
Landing Score 96.85 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude approached runway 04R at KMDW from the southwest on a final approach heading 47.0° while 2 nm out and 1,742 ft above ground level, with temperature 70 °F, wind 6 kt from 080°, a 4 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind component.

At the threshold the height was good, but the threshold speed was too high at 134 kt.

Touchdown occurred 474 ft beyond the designated touchdown zone; the aircraft was fast at 122 kt, yet the descent rate was good at minus 182 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The aircraft used a total landing distance of 2,666 ft, representing 45 % of the 5,922-ft runway, and rollout alignment remained perfect.

Reduce the threshold and touchdown speeds to bring them within the target range, which will shorten the landing roll and keep the touchdown point within the touchdown zone; the 94.4 % score indicates the overall performance was strong, requiring only these refinements.
