The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 36 at Colonel James Jabara Airport (KAAO) in Wichita, Kansas. The takeoff distance was 2,137 feet, which was 35% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 135 knots.
The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 44°F and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 93°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 0 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of KAAO, rising from an altitude of 2,468 feet above sea level to 18,692 feet above sea level, an increase of 16,224 feet, in 6 minutes and covering a distance of 28 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 2 miles southwest of Goessel, Kansas, and involved a decrease in altitude from 19,092 feet above sea level to 3,104 feet above sea level, a total decrease of 15,988 feet, in 8 minutes and covering a distance of 29 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase 2 miles southwest of Assaria, Kansas, which lasted for 4 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35 at Salina Municipal Airport (KSLN) was made from the south, with a heading of 2.0° and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft landed on runway 35, which had a length of 12,322 feet. The threshold height was slightly above the target, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 104 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 921 feet, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 104 knots, and the touchdown rate was very hard at -509 feet per minute.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 15 feet from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 41°F and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 180°, resulting in a crosswind of 0 knots and a tailwind of 13 knots. The total landing distance was 2,336 feet, which was 19% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The final phase of the flight involved taxiing to the parking from the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 68 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 29 minutes. The aircraft used 499 pounds of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KSLN Salina Municipal Airport, achieving a score of 91.8%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 2.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,511 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 35, which has a length of 12,322 feet.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 104 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown distance of 921 feet was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the touchdown rate of -509 feet per minute (fpm) was very hard, suggesting that the aircraft may have been descending too quickly.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 15 feet, which may have been due to factors such as wind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing included a temperature of 41°F and a wind speed of 13 knots from a direction of 180°. This resulted in a tailwind of 13 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly fast touchdown speed.
The total landing distance of 2,336 feet was 19% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was not perfect, the Cessna CJ4 Citation was able to safely touch down on the runway and come to a stop within a reasonable distance. The score of 91.8% indicates that the pilot performed well, but there is still room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and touchdown rate.
