What went well

Touched down at -192 fpm — a soft arrival
Straight touchdown — 3.5 ft off the centreline, no bounce
1.28 G at touchdown — inside band

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 0 %, Threshold speed was too high at 110 kt. at 75 %, −1.49 points
Departure Climb 2 — bank angle up to 32.3 ° at 20 %, −1.33 points
Departure Climb 3 — bank angle up to 38.6 ° at 4 %, −1.28 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 23 at the Akron Canton Regional Airport (KCAK). The takeoff distance was 2,022 feet, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 142 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 61°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was also 1 knot. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead the Akron Canton Regional Airport. The climb took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 40 nautical miles, during which the aircraft ascended from an altitude of 1,720 feet above sea level to 20,010 feet above sea level, an increase of 18,291 feet.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles south of Port Washington, Ohio. This phase lasted for 47 minutes and covered a distance of 323 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 7 miles northeast of Jonesville, South Carolina. The descent took 13 minutes and covered a distance of 60 nautical miles, during which the aircraft descended from an altitude of 19,991 feet above sea level to 2,005 feet above sea level, a decrease of 17,987 feet.

The final approach to runway 36C at the Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) was made from the south, with a heading of 356.0° at an altitude of 4 nautical miles and 1,264 feet above ground level. The landing was made on a runway length of 10,027 feet, with a threshold height of 63 feet above ground level, which was above the target height. The threshold speed was too high at 110 knots, and the touchdown point was 1,566 feet beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 91 knots, which was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -141 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was 2 knots, while the headwind component was 0 knots. The total landing distance was 3,970 feet, which is 40% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking area took less than 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The total flight distance was 428 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 74 minutes. The aircraft used 2,913 pounds of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) on runway 36C. The aircraft's final approach was initiated from the south, heading 356.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,264 feet above ground level (agl). The landing was executed with a runway length of 10,027 feet, providing a sufficient margin for the aircraft to touch down safely.

However, there were some areas for improvement in the landing. The threshold height at 63 feet agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly high on its approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 110 knots, which could have contributed to the aircraft's high touchdown speed. The touchdown point was 1,566 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance.

The touchdown speed of 91 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -141 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the aircraft's descent was controlled and stable, even if it was a bit too aggressive. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind of 2 knots at 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance was 3,970 feet, which is 40% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but it is not excessively long considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement in the landing, the Cessna CJ4 Citation demonstrated a high level of proficiency and control during its approach and landing at KCLT.
