What went well

Touched down at -57 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 3.57 m off the centreline, no bounce
1.09 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, −1.65 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 19.5 ° at 54 %, −0.77 points
Arrival Rollout — Runway alignment max 11.14 m at 76 %, −0.51 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 24R at Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX). The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 498 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 109 knots, marking the start of the aircraft's ascent into the sky.

As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and winds blowing at 8 knots from a direction of 110 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile north of El Segundo, California, and the aircraft rose from an altitude of 1,160 feet above sea level to 2,235 feet above sea level, an increase of 1,075 feet in just 1 minute. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.

Following the climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 7 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. This phase took place overhead El Segundo, California. The aircraft then began its descent, starting from an altitude of 1,852 feet above sea level and descending to 1,289 feet above sea level, a decrease of 563 feet in 2 minutes. The descent covered a distance of 3 nautical miles and took place overhead Florence-Graham, California.

The final approach to runway 24R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport was initiated from the east, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 263.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,156 feet above ground level and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed on runway 24R, which had a length of 2,712 meters. The threshold height was well above the target, and the threshold speed was also well above the target at 107 knots.

The touchdown point was located 310 meters beyond the touchdown zone, but the touchdown speed of 92 knots was considered good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -57 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.6 meters. The local weather conditions during the landing were similar to those encountered during the climb, with a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and winds blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 129 degrees. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the tailwind component was also 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,396 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centerline by 9.6 meters. The total flight distance was 20 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 12 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 69 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 24R at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 86.69 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at KLAX Los Angeles International Airport, achieving an overall score of 86.7%. The final approach to runway 24R was initiated from the east, with a heading of 263.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,156 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 92 kt, which was within the target range. The touchdown rate was also excellent, at -57 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the threshold height at 72 ft agl was well above the target, suggesting that the aircraft may have been slightly high on final approach.

The threshold speed was also well above the target at 107 kt, which may indicate that the aircraft was not fully configured for landing. Despite this, the touchdown point was 310 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight drift or crosswind.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 2 kt from 129°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 2 kt, which is minimal and unlikely to have had a significant impact on the landing.

The total landing distance was 1,396 meters, which is 51% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled and configured for landing. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.6 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight drift or crosswind.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the target parameters. The aircraft's performance was good, and the pilot's skills were demonstrated in achieving a smooth and controlled landing.
