The flight began with a departure roll from runway 07 at MSLP Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, took off with a takeoff distance of 1,026 meters, which accounted for 32% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 149 knots, indicating a smooth and efficient takeoff.
As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb overhead MSLP Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport in San Salvador. The climb began at an altitude of 457 feet above sea level and reached 3,265 feet above sea level, an increase of 2,808 feet in just 3 minutes. The aircraft covered a distance of 13 nautical miles during this climb phase.
The final approach to runway 33 at MSSS Ilopango International Airport was initiated from the south east, with the aircraft heading 329.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,200 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway. The approach was likely a visual one, given the aircraft's heading and altitude.
The landing on runway 33 at MSSS Ilopango International Airport was notable for its good touchdown distance of 412 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 117 knots was slightly too fast, and the touchdown rate of -245 feet per minute was only fair. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 6.8 meters.
The local weather conditions during the landing were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was negligible.
In conclusion, the flight was a relatively short one, covering a total distance of 17 nautical miles in 4 minutes. The aircraft used 49 kilograms of fuel during this time, indicating a moderate fuel consumption. Overall, the flight was a smooth and efficient one, with some minor issues during the landing phase.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at MSSS Ilopango International Airport, achieving a score of 90.6%. The final approach was conducted from the southeast, heading 329.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,200 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 33, which has a length of 2,254 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 124 knots, which may have been due to various factors such as the aircraft's speed being too high or the pilot's decision to flare too late.
The touchdown distance was good at 412 meters, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively after touchdown. However, the touchdown speed was reported as too fast at 117 knots, which may have put additional stress on the aircraft's landing gear and brakes. The touchdown rate was fair at -245 feet per minute (fpm), which is a reasonable rate considering the aircraft's weight and the runway's length.
One notable issue was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 6.8 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to a slight deviation in the aircraft's heading or a miscalculation of the runway's centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind component. Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the threshold speed and touchdown speed.
