What went well

Touched down at -362 fpm — a soft arrival
1.40 G at touchdown — inside band
Rollout controlled — 33 % of the runway used

What held you back

Arrival Landing — at 0 %, Landing and flare profile at 0 %, −2.23 points
Arrival Rollout — bounce at touchdown; Runway alignment max 82.4 ft at 28 %, −1.35 points
Arrival Touchdown — Runway alignment max 64.8 ft at 39 %, bank angle up to 5.9 ° at 52 %, −1.13 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.

Landing on runway 17L at KCOS City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 67.44 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (KCOS) on runway 17L. However, the landing was not without its issues, as the aircraft scored a 67.4% on its performance. The final approach to the runway was initiated from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,298 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 1,421 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the target. The touchdown speed of 112 knots was also faster than the target speed, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before touchdown. The touchdown rate of -362 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, suggesting that the aircraft may have been subjected to a significant amount of deceleration force upon landing.

One of the most notable issues with this landing was the excessive height at the threshold, which was 103 feet agl, well above the target height. Additionally, the threshold speed was significantly above the target speed at 125 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before reaching the threshold. The runway touchdown position was also significantly misaligned by 65 feet from the centreline, 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 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and there was no headwind component. Despite these favorable weather conditions, the pilot was still unable to achieve a smooth and controlled landing.

The total landing distance of 4,585 feet was 34% of the runway length, which is a relatively high percentage. This suggests that the aircraft may have been traveling at a high speed for a significant portion of the landing roll, which could have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 75 feet from the centreline, which could have made it more difficult for the pilot to control the aircraft during the landing roll.

Overall, while the Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft was able to land safely at the City of Colorado Springs Municipal Airport, the landing was not without its issues. The pilot will need to work on improving their skills and techniques to achieve a smoother and more controlled landing in the future.
