The flight began with taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KFOE Topeka Regional Airport, which took approximately 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The aircraft was then cleared for departure from runway 13, and the takeoff distance covered 1,639 feet, which was 13% of the runway. Liftoff occurred at 139 kt, a speed well within the aircraft's capabilities.

Following takeoff, the enroute climb started approximately 1 mile south of the airport and reached an altitude of 30,006 feet asl within 11 minutes, covering a distance of 48 nm. This significant increase in altitude from the initial 2,080 feet asl was achieved at a relatively fast rate, showcasing the aircraft's impressive climb performance.

Once the enroute climb phase was completed, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase that lasted for 55 minutes, during which it covered a considerable distance of 421 nm. This cruise phase started 2 miles north of Louisburg, Kansas, and provided the aircraft with the optimal conditions to maintain a steady and efficient flight path.

However, as the flight progressed, the aircraft started its initial descent, initiating a gradual decrease in altitude from 29,996 feet asl to 4,047 feet asl within a span of 14 minutes and covering a distance of 79 nm. The descent started approximately 3 miles east of Smyrna, Tennessee. Subsequently, a brief level cruise phase ensued, lasting 6 minutes and covering just 3 nm.

The aircraft entered another descent phase, this time from 3,373 feet asl to 1,970 feet asl within 2 minutes, covering a short distance of 6 nm, before starting its final approach to runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. During this final approach, the aircraft flew a heading of 197.0°, positioned 4 nm north of the runway, at an altitude of 1,283 feet agl.

The good threshold height indicated favorable conditions for landing, but the threshold speed was slightly too high at 110 kt, necessitating adjustments during the approach phase. The touch down point was 205 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and while the touch down speed of 94 kt was a little fast, the touch down rate was smooth at -144 fpm. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 12 ft from the centerline, but the runway rollout alignment was very good, showcasing the pilot's expertise and control during the landing.

The overall landing distance of 2,667 ft represented a mere 36% of the runway length. Additionally, the landing was made in the face of marginal crosswinds, with no adverse effects on the overall performance. The aircraft then proceeded to taxi to the parking area, requiring just 1 minute to cover less than 1 nm.

Throughout the flight, a distance of 563 nm was covered, utilizing approximately 95 minutes of flight time and zero pounds of fuel.

Landing on runway 20 at KCHA Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 98.36 %

Landing Summary

A Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft has successfully completed a landing at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field), with a high score of 98.4%. The aircraft's final approach was directed toward runway 20, which is 7,404 feet long. The aircraft was approaching from the north at a heading of 197.0 degrees, at a distance of 4 nautical miles and 1,283 feet above ground level (agl).

The landing was deemed to be in good condition with a good threshold height observed during the approach. However, the threshold speed of the aircraft was slightly too high, recorded at 110 knots. Upon touchdown, the aircraft touched down 205 feet beyond the designated touchdown zone, and with a speed of 94 knots, which was slightly above the recommended speed. The rate at which the plane touched down was reported as smooth, at a rate of -144 feet per minute (fpm).

Despite some minor issues with the approach, the aircraft's runway touchdown alignment was not perfectly centered on the runway, being 12 feet off from the centerline. Nevertheless, the overall performance and control of the aircraft were deemed satisfactory. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a relatively calm wind of 2 knots from 270 degrees, resulting in a 1-knot headwind and minimal crosswind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance of the aircraft was 2,667 feet, which accounts for approximately 36% of the runway's length. Following touchdown, the aircraft maintained very good alignment during the rollout process. Overall, the landing was deemed a success, despite some minor deviations from ideal standards.
