The Cessna Longitude departed Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (KASE) on runway 15, employing a takeoff run of 2,351 m which represented 96 % of the available runway. Liftoff was achieved at 136 kt. Ambient conditions were 19 °C with a wind from 149° at 6 kt, including a 1 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt headwind.

Climb commenced one mile west of Aspen, where the aircraft accelerated from 8,522 ft asl to 34,170 ft asl, a gain of 25,648 ft. The ascent was completed in 9 minutes while covering 50 nm.

Level cruise began seven miles south-west of Aspen and persisted for 9 minutes, during which 71 nm were traversed.

Descent was initiated nine miles west of Gunnison, descending from 34,634 ft asl to 9,768 ft asl, a loss of 24,865 ft. The descent lasted 8 minutes and spanned 72 nm.

The final approach to runway 09 at Telluride Regional Airport (KTEX) was executed from the west, on a heading of 107.0° at 2 nm and 726 ft agl.

Landing on runway 09 occurred with a runway length of 2,102 m; the threshold height of 88 ft agl was above the intended value and the threshold speed was 150 kt. Touchdown was recorded at 136 kt, using more than 50 % of the runway and producing a hard touchdown rate of minus 424 fpm. The touchdown point was offset 10.4 m from the centreline. Weather at the time was 21 °C with a wind from 219° at 14 kt, a 13 kt crosswind component and a 6 kt tailwind. Total landing distance measured 1,805 m, equivalent to 86 % of the runway, and the rollout was laterally misaligned by 14.3 m from the centreline.

After rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in less than 1 minute, covering less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 197 nm, required 27 minutes, and consumed 641 kg of fuel.

Landing on runway 09 at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport in the Cessna Longitude

Landing Score 62.16 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna Longitude completed a final approach to runway 09 at KTEX Telluride Regional Airport from the west, tracking a heading of 107.0° at 2 nm and 726 ft agl. The aircraft entered the approach with a temperature of 21 °C, wind from 219° at 14 kt, a 13 kt cross-wind component and a 6 kt tail-wind component, and the overall landing score was recorded as 62.2 %.

During the threshold and flare phase the threshold height was 88 ft agl, which was significantly above target, and the threshold speed was 150 kt, which was excessively high.

At touchdown the aircraft contacted the runway after using more than 50 % of the available runway, the touchdown speed was 136 kt, which was too fast, and the vertical rate was hard at minus 424 fpm. The touchdown point was misaligned by 10.4 m from the centreline.

The rollout covered a total landing distance of 1,805 m, representing 86 % of the 2,102 m runway, and the rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 14.3 m from the centreline.

Reduce the approach and touchdown speeds to bring the aircraft within the intended speed envelope and aim for an earlier touchdown point to preserve runway margin. Improving centreline tracking during flare and rollout will also tighten alignment tolerances.
