What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft; speed limits at 67 %, −1.11 points
Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 28.7 ft at 79 %, Liftoff speed was 150 kn at 83 %, −0.50 points
Arrival Taxi — landing lights, −0.21 points

Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking to the runway, taking approximately 2 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna CJ4 Citation, then departed from runway 36C at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT). The takeoff distance was 1,845 feet, which is 18% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 150 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 62°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was 1 knot, while the headwind component was 0 knots. The aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north of KCLT, rising from an altitude of 1,738 feet above sea level to 12,504 feet above sea level, an increase of 10,766 feet, in just 5 minutes and covering 22 nautical miles.

Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 3 miles north of Lincolnton, North Carolina.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KFFT Capital City Airport, achieving a score of 99.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 64.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,258 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the runway's length of 5,456 feet and its orientation.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 104 knots. The touchdown distance of 958 feet was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown speed of 94 knots was well within the desired range. However, the touchdown rate of -277 feet per minute (fpm) was only fair, indicating that the pilot could have managed the descent more smoothly.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and a slight tailwind of 1 knot. The aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and controlled approach.

The total landing distance of 2,226 feet was 41% of the runway's length, which is a relatively short distance. This suggests that the pilot had managed the approach and touchdown effectively, minimizing the aircraft's stopping distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and had brought it to a stop safely and efficiently. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
