The flight in question was a Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft that took off from a location 6 miles northeast of the Jackson Hole Airport in Jackson, Wyoming, United States. The aircraft began its enroute climb from an initial altitude of 8,083 feet above sea level, increasing its altitude to 7,458 feet above sea level in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This climb was a significant achievement, demonstrating the aircraft's impressive capabilities.
As the aircraft approached the Jackson Hole Airport, it began its final approach to runway 19 from the north, heading in a direction of 202.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,016 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating that the pilot had a clear view of the runway and was well-positioned for landing.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 19, which had a length of 1,923 meters. The touchdown point was 207 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot had slightly overextended the landing. The touchdown speed of 99 knots was slightly faster than the target speed, and the touchdown rate of -203 feet per minute was considered fair. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 179 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. These conditions were favorable for landing, and the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a safe stop.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area from the runway in just 1 minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This was a quick and efficient taxiing process, indicating that the pilot was experienced and familiar with the airport's layout.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KJAC Jackson Hole Airport, achieving a score of 96.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the north, heading 202.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,016 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 19, which has a length of 1,923 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft demonstrated good threshold height, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold speed was above the target speed, reaching 105 knots. This may have been due to the aircraft's high approach speed or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a more stable approach.
The touchdown point was located 207 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. However, the touchdown speed of 99 knots was faster than ideal, resulting in a touchdown rate of -203 feet per minute (fpm). This may have been due to the aircraft's high approach speed or the pilot's decision to flare the aircraft too late.
Despite the slightly fast touchdown speed, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 2°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 179°, contributed to a relatively calm landing environment. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots.
The total landing distance of 1,199 meters was 62% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the aircraft was able to stop quickly and efficiently after touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline during the rollout phase.
Overall, the Cessna CJ4 Citation demonstrated a good landing performance at KJAC Jackson Hole Airport, with a score of 96.9%. While there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and distance, the aircraft's alignment and rollout were excellent, indicating a high level of pilot skill and aircraft performance.
