Landing on runway 07R at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 73.24 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at PANC Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the west, heading 90.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,210 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 07R, which has a length of 12,362 feet.

The threshold height at 88 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft was higher than desired when reaching the runway threshold. Additionally, the threshold speed of 102 knots was well above the target, suggesting that the aircraft was traveling faster than necessary when reaching the threshold. Despite these deviations, the touchdown point was 1,766 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively safe distance.

The touchdown speed of 92 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -79 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline at touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 16°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 98°. The crosswind component was negligible, and the headwind component was 2 knots, which likely contributed to the aircraft's slightly fast touchdown speed.

The total landing distance of 4,376 feet was 35% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 55 feet from the centerline, which may have been due to the aircraft's slightly fast touchdown speed or other factors.

Overall, the landing was successful, but with some notable deviations from the ideal parameters. The pilot's skills and experience likely played a significant role in ensuring a safe and controlled landing, despite the challenges posed by the aircraft's speed and altitude at the threshold.
