Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Landing report
Landing on runway 36 at VTBU U-Tapao International Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 96.9 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at VTBU U-Tapao International Airport, achieving a high score of 96.9%. The final approach to runway 36 was conducted from the south, with a heading of 5.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,234 feet above ground level.

The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, although the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 97 knots. However, the touchdown distance of 260 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 89 knots was also within acceptable limits. The most impressive aspect of the landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -99 feet per minute.

Despite the good overall performance, there was a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position, with the aircraft being 4.2 meters off the centerline. This may have been due to the aircraft's heading or the pilot's control inputs during the final approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a gentle headwind of 7 knots at 350°.

The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, which likely contributed to the smooth landing. The total landing distance of 1,147 meters was 33% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.

Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and coming to a stop within a reasonable distance. The high score of 96.9% reflects the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance during the landing.
