Landing on runway 28R at KSFO San Francisco International Airport in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 93.6 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at San Francisco International Airport (KSFO) on runway 28R, achieving a score of 93.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 298.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,274 feet above ground level (agl).

The final approach was executed with good threshold height, indicating that the aircraft was properly configured for landing. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 96 kt, which may have been due to the aircraft's descent rate or the pilot's decision to maintain a higher speed for a smoother touchdown.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's distance was good at 1,019 feet, but the touchdown speed of 89 kt was a little fast. This may have resulted in a harder touchdown rate of -490 feet per minute (fpm), which could have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and potentially affected the overall safety of the landing.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 25 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's approach path or a miscalculation of the runway alignment. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 59°F, which was likely a factor in the aircraft's performance during the approach and landing phases. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal performance that could be addressed through further training or adjustments to the aircraft's configuration.
