Landing on runway 31 at KCOS City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 93.69 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (KCOS) with a score of 93.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 315.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,282 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 31, which has a length of 7,892 feet.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 698 feet beyond the touchdown zone, indicating that the pilot may have slightly over-extended the landing. The threshold speed was excessively high at 120 knots, which is above the recommended speed for a safe landing. However, the touchdown speed of 100 knots was also fast, suggesting that the pilot may have been trying to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing.

Despite the high touchdown speed, the touchdown rate was smooth at -112 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot was able to align the aircraft with the runway during the landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind and headwind components were both 1 knot, which is relatively light and should not have affected the landing.

The total landing distance was 3,672 feet, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it is not excessively long. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout.

Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement. The pilot should aim to reduce the threshold speed and touchdown speed to more acceptable levels, and work on maintaining a more precise touchdown point.
