This flight was conducted in a Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft, taking off from a location 5 miles east of Rishiri Airport on the island of Rishiri in Hokkaido, Japan. The initial climb began at an altitude of 4,150 feet above sea level, and the aircraft successfully ascended to 588 feet above sea level, a total increase of 3,562 feet, within a short period of 3 minutes. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 4 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached the final approach to runway 25 at Rishiri Airport, it was heading in a northeasterly direction at an altitude of 471 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The aircraft maintained a steady heading of 238.0 degrees during this phase of the flight.
Upon landing on runway 25, which has a length of 1,782 meters, the aircraft touched down with a touchdown distance of 278 meters. However, the touchdown speed of 106 knots was slightly higher than the target speed, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly fast on touchdown. The touchdown rate was also quite heavy, at -818 feet per minute, suggesting that the aircraft may have been experiencing a significant amount of deceleration upon landing.
Despite the slightly high touchdown speed and heavy touchdown rate, the runway touchdown alignment was reported to be very good. The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 7 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots.
In terms of the flight's performance, the total distance traveled was 5 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 2 minutes. The aircraft consumed a total of -265 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at RJER Rishiri Airport, but with some notable deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 238.0° at 1 nautical mile and 471 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach to the runway 25 threshold was slightly above the target height, indicating a slightly higher than desired altitude at the point of threshold crossing.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down at a distance of 278 meters, which is considered good. However, the touchdown speed of 106 knots was higher than the ideal speed, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to fully arrest the aircraft's descent before touchdown. This, in turn, resulted in a very heavy touchdown rate of -818 feet per minute (fpm), which is significantly higher than the desired rate.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 5°C and a wind speed of 7 knots from 269°. The crosswind component was 4 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots, which may have contributed to the higher than ideal touchdown speed.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there are some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and rate. The pilot may need to adjust their approach and landing technique to achieve a more ideal touchdown speed and rate, while still maintaining a stable and aligned approach to the runway.
