Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KARR Aurora Municipal Airport, achieving a score of 97.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 266.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning the aircraft with the runway threshold.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 27, which has a length of 6,474 feet. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was above the target speed of 105 kt. The touchdown distance of 579 feet was within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown speed of 101 kt was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate.

The touchdown rate of -254 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to achieve a more controlled touchdown. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 kt from 270°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind component was minimal at 1 kt. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth and controlled landing.

The total landing distance of 1,798 feet was 28% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
