Top opportunity

Shorten the long landing

Arrival Touchdown

Ground effect becomes significant below about one wingspan of height. A Cessna 172, with a 36 ft span, enters ground effect at flare height - the float it feels in the hold-off is ground effect arriving on cue. An A320, with a span around 117 ft, has been in ground effect since before the threshold and there is no sudden cushion to feel, only a gradual reduction in induced drag that lengthens any float you allow.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a quick taxi from the parking area to the runway at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, covering less than 1 nautical mile in under 1 minute. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then took off from runway 26, reaching a liftoff speed of 124 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 310°, resulting in a 5-knot headwind.

As the aircraft climbed to its initial cruising altitude, it began its enroute climb from 2,131 feet above sea level to 33,819 feet, an increase of 31,688 feet in just 21 minutes. This climb phase covered a distance of 71 nautical miles. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, lasting 10 minutes and covering 41 nautical miles, before beginning its descent from 33,947 feet to 22,892 feet in 10 minutes, covering 57 nautical miles.

The flight continued with multiple enroute level cruise phases, each lasting a few minutes and covering short distances. These phases were interspersed with descent phases, during which the aircraft lost altitude and covered varying distances. The final descent phase began 1 mile east of Lakeside, California, and ended with the aircraft touching down on runway 09 at San Diego International Airport.

The landing was characterized by a touchdown speed of 94 knots, which was slightly above the target speed. The touchdown point was 278 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline. The total landing distance was 1,208 meters, accounting for 58% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was excessively misaligned by 50.2 meters from the centerline.

After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking 5 minutes to cover less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 286 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 76 minutes. The aircraft used 1,239 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 09 at KSAN San Diego International Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 61.58 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft has successfully landed at San Diego International Airport (KSAN) on runway 09. However, the landing was not without its challenges, as indicated by the score of 61.6%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the west, heading 106.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,463 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 278 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target. The touchdown speed of 94 knots was slightly above the target, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent. Furthermore, the touchdown rate of -502 feet per minute (fpm) was extremely hard, suggesting that the pilot may have been unable to control the aircraft's rate of descent effectively.

The runway touchdown position was also misaligned by 10.1 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 17°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 310°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 7 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,208 meters was 58% of the available runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the pilot may have been unable to fully utilize the available runway length, potentially due to the hard touchdown and subsequent rollout issues. The runway rollout alignment was also excessively misaligned by 50.2 meters from the centerline, which could have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing.

Overall, while the Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft was able to land safely at San Diego International Airport, the landing was not without its challenges. The pilot may have benefited from additional training or practice to improve their skills and ability to control the aircraft during landing.
