Landing on runway 28 at VOVZ Vishakhapatnam in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 96.05 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at VOVZ Vishakhapatnam, achieving a score of 96.0%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 275.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,262 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning the aircraft with the runway 28 at VOVZ Vishakhapatnam, which has a length of 2,744 meters.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 101 knots. The touchdown point was 56 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 91 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -85 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 22°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 69°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 3 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 1,835 meters was 67% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.

However, there was a slight misalignment during the runway rollout, with the aircraft deviating from the centerline by 10.8 meters. This minor deviation may be attributed to the pilot's efforts to maintain control and stability during the landing roll. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
