This flight took off from Columbus Municipal Airport, runway 32. It initiated its departure roll onto the runway and achieved liftoff after 1,468 meters, which was 82% of the runway's total length. The aircraft's liftoff speed was 161 kt with local weather conditions that included a temperature of 21°C, wind of 17 kt at 310°, resulting in a crosswind of 6 kt and a headwind of 16 kt.
After departing from the airport, the aircraft began its enroute climb 1 mile north west of the takeoff point. It ascended from an initial altitude of 2,542 ft asl to a maximum altitude of 12,506 ft asl, covering an impressive distance of 17 nm in just 4 minutes. Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered an enroute level cruise, starting 7 miles north east of Schuyler, Nebraska. This leg lasted for 3 minutes and covered 21 nm.
The aircraft then initiated its enroute descent 6 miles north of Hooper, Nebraska. During this phase, it decreased its altitude from 12,804 ft asl to 3,236 ft asl, covering 36 nm in 9 minutes. After reaching a lower altitude, the aircraft engaged in another enroute level cruise, commencing 1 mile north east of Sloan, Iowa. This segment had a duration of 2 minutes and spanned 3 nm.
The enroute descent phase resumed as the aircraft descended 1 mile south east of Salix, Iowa, decreasing its altitude from 2,930 ft asl to 2,064 ft asl. This phase concluded 2 minutes after initiation and covered 4 nm. Finally, the aircraft prepared for its arrival at Sioux Gateway Airport / Brigadier General Bud Day Field, approaching runway 31 from the south east at a heading of 315.0°.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft demonstrated good touchdown speed at 126 kt and touchdown distance of 408 m. However, it exhibited a slightly misaligned touchdown position by 6.1 m from the centreline.

The CRJ900 aircraft made a smooth landing on runway 31 at KSUX Sioux Gateway Airport / Brigadier General Bud Day Field, achieving a score of 96.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the southeast, heading 315.0° at 4 nm and 959 ft above ground level (agl), prior to touching down on the runway. The landing was carried out with good threshold height, with the threshold speed of 133 kt being within the recommended parameters.
The touchdown distance was equally good at 408 m, indicating that the pilot had a firm grasp of the aircraft's descent and had properly configured it for landing. The touchdown speed of 126 kt was also within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown rate, which is defined as the descent rate at the moment of touchdown, came in fair at -222 fpm, which might be considered slightly on the low side compared to optimal values.
One of the minor issues observed in this landing was that the aircraft touched down 6.1 m off the centreline, which could potentially lead to issues during rollout and could have been addressed with more precise control and alignment during the descent. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was observed to be slightly misaligned by 9.5 m from the centreline, which could pose a risk of uneven runway usage and potential skidding of the aircraft.
Local weather conditions were moderate, with a temperature of 16 °C and a 15 kt headwind blowing at 310°. The crosswind component was measured at 2 kt, which was effectively cancelled out by the headwind. The total landing distance of 1,379 m was observed to be within 50% of the runway length, which is considered a safe and efficient landing. Despite a few minor issues, the CRJ900 aircraft landed successfully within the parameters that would be expected from a well-trained and experienced pilot.
