Landing on runway 34 at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 91.94 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at UBBB Heydar Aliyev International Airport, achieving a score of 91.9%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 347.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,250 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions.

The temperature at the time of landing was 24°C, with a wind speed of 23 knots blowing from 330°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 22 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The threshold speed was above the target speed, reaching 110 knots, indicating a safe and controlled approach.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 160 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a speed of 82 knots and a descent rate of -190 feet per minute (fpm). This was a good touchdown speed and rate, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6 meters from the centerline.

The total landing distance was 746 meters, which accounted for 19% of the runway length. This was a relatively short landing distance, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, showing that the pilot maintained control and stability during the landing roll.

Overall, the landing was executed safely and efficiently, with the pilot demonstrating good control and management of the aircraft during the approach and touchdown. The score of 91.9% reflects the high standard of the landing, with only minor deviations from the ideal performance.
