The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking area to the runway, which took approximately 3 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 35L at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (KDFW). The takeoff distance was 2,079 feet, which accounted for 15% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 149 knots.
As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 62°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind was 2 knots, while the headwind was 0 knots. After departing from KDFW, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and reached an altitude of 24,325 feet above sea level. The climb covered a distance of 32 nautical miles and took 7 minutes, during which the aircraft ascended by 22,753 feet from an initial altitude of 1,572 feet above sea level.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for 65 minutes and covered a distance of 455 nautical miles. This phase began 1 mile south-east of the Akroville Slidell airport (3TX). The aircraft then started its enroute descent, which began 3 miles south-west of the Hugo airport (Colorado, United States). The descent took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 56 nautical miles, during which the aircraft decreased its altitude by 17,551 feet from 25,001 feet above sea level to 7,449 feet above sea level.
The final approach to runway 17R at the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (KCOS) was made from the north, with a heading of 180.0°. The aircraft was at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,297 feet above ground level when it began its descent. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 11,013 feet, and the threshold height was good. However, the threshold speed was too high at 118 knots.
The touchdown point was 832 feet beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 103 knots, which was faster than desired. The touchdown rate was firm at -314 feet per minute. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°, with a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 0 knots.
The total landing distance was 3,699 feet, which accounted for 34% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. After landing, the aircraft took 1 minute to taxi to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 549 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 94 minutes.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (KCOS) on runway 17R. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,297 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft scored 92.4% on this landing, indicating a good overall performance.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 832 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the expected threshold. The touchdown speed of 103 knots was higher than the recommended threshold speed, which was 118 knots. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to reduce the touchdown speed. The touchdown rate was firm at -314 feet per minute (fpm), which is within the acceptable range.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 16 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or a minor issue with the aircraft's alignment during the landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing roll.
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°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 3,699 feet, which is 34% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor issues with the touchdown speed and runway alignment. However, the pilot's ability to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing roll and bring it to a stop quickly and efficiently was impressive.
