Departing from the island of Bora Bora, the Cessna CJ4 Citation initiated its enroute climb phase, ascending from an initial altitude of 3,006 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 923 feet above sea level. This climb phase was characterized by a notable increase in altitude, with a gain of 2,083 feet in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 5 nautical miles. The aircraft's performance during this phase demonstrated its ability to efficiently transition from a low-altitude departure to a higher cruising altitude.
As the aircraft approached the final approach phase, it began its descent from a cruising altitude of 923 feet above sea level to an altitude of 906 feet above ground level, while maintaining a heading of 304.0 degrees from the southeast. The aircraft's approach to runway 29 at Bora Bora Airport was executed with precision, with a touchdown point located 489 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone. The aircraft's touchdown speed of 83 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -195 feet per minute was also satisfactory. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the approach phase.
The landing phase was completed with a total landing distance of 2,580 feet, which represented 53% of the available runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 59 degrees Fahrenheit, with a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. The aircraft's performance during the landing phase was satisfactory, with a fuel consumption of 19 pounds for the entire flight, which covered a total distance of 7 nautical miles and took approximately 3 minutes to complete.
