What went well

Touched down at -272 fpm — a soft arrival
1.29 G at touchdown — inside band
Rollout controlled — 28 % of the runway used

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, Threshold speed was well above target at 109 kn. at 90 %, −1.51 points
Arrival Taxi — landing lights; peak speed in a turn 22 kt at 35 %, −1.42 points
Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft, then overspeed warning; speed limits at 77 %, −0.62 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.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on runway 18R. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,301 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored an overall rating of 88.6%.

One of the notable aspects of the landing was the final approach to the runway. The threshold height at 71 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than expected when approaching the runway. Additionally, the threshold speed was also above the target at 109 knots, suggesting that the aircraft was traveling faster than intended when reaching the runway threshold.

The touchdown point was located 859 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively significant distance. The touchdown speed of 95 knots was slightly faster than the target, and the touchdown rate of -268 feet per minute (fpm) was considered fair. However, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind. These conditions likely contributed to the successful landing.

The total landing distance of 3,818 feet was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase.

Overall, the Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft demonstrated a good performance during the landing at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. While there were some minor deviations from the target values, the aircraft's overall performance was satisfactory, and the landing was considered successful.
