This flight was conducted in a Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft, which began its enroute climb from a location 5 miles southeast of Chilcoot-Vinton in California, United States. The aircraft started its ascent from an altitude of 8,500 feet above sea level and successfully climbed to 6,723 feet above sea level, a gain of 1,777 feet in just 3 minutes, while covering a distance of 6 nautical miles.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 08 at KRTS Reno/Stead from the west, heading at a precise angle of 103.0 degrees. At this point, the aircraft was 3 nautical miles away from the runway and at an altitude of 1,681 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 08, which has a length of 2,240 meters. Although the threshold height was satisfactory, the threshold speed was slightly too high at 112 knots. The touchdown point was located 59 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 98 knots was a bit faster than ideal. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -72 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -5 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 8 knots at an angle of 49 degrees. The crosswind was 6 knots, while the headwind was 5 knots. The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 774 meters, which accounted for 35% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
In terms of the overall flight performance, the aircraft covered a total distance of 10 nautical miles in 4 minutes, consuming 19 kilograms of fuel in the process.

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KRTS Reno/Stead airport, achieving a score of 98.4%. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 103.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,681 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach was made to runway 08, which has a length of 2,240 meters.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 59 meters beyond the touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun. The threshold speed was reported to be too high at 112 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to flare the aircraft more effectively to achieve a smoother touchdown. The touchdown speed of 98 knots was also a bit fast, but the touchdown rate of -72 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of -5°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from a direction of 49°. This resulted in a crosswind of 6 knots and a headwind of 5 knots, which the pilot successfully managed during the landing. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also excellent, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing.
The total landing distance of 774 meters was 35% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the approach and landing phases of flight.
