What went well

Touched down at -155 fpm — a soft arrival
1.16 G at touchdown — inside band
Rollout controlled — 30 % of the runway used

What held you back

Enroute Descent — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft, then overspeed warning; speed limits at 70 %, −1.31 points
Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 29 %, Threshold speed was too high at 115 kt at 72 %, −1.10 points
Enroute Climb — 250 kt exceeded below 10,000 ft, then overspeed warning; speed limits at 83 %, −0.78 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 29 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 29 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 29 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Landing on runway 17C at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in the Cessna Citation CJ4
Landing Score 88.84 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on runway 17C. The final approach was initiated from the north, heading 180.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,256 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was evaluated, and it scored an overall rating of 88.8%.

The aircraft's approach to the runway was slightly above the target threshold height, which was set at 58 feet agl. This indicates that the aircraft was slightly higher than desired when it reached the threshold of the runway. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 115 knots, which is above the recommended speed for landing. This could potentially lead to a longer landing distance and increased wear on the aircraft's brakes.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 101 knots, which is faster than the recommended speed for landing. However, the touchdown rate was excellent at -86 feet per minute (fpm), indicating that the aircraft touched down smoothly and with minimal impact. The touchdown point was 1,396 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is a significant distance from the intended landing spot.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 17 feet from the centreline, which could potentially lead to issues with the aircraft's alignment during rollout. 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°. The crosswind and headwind components were minimal, at 1 knot and 0 knots, respectively.

The total landing distance was 4,141 feet, which is 31% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, considering the runway length of 13,434 feet. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 30 feet from the centreline, which could potentially lead to issues with the aircraft's alignment during rollout.

Overall, while the Cessna CJ4 Citation aircraft successfully landed at KDFW Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, there were several areas for improvement. The aircraft's approach speed was too high, and the touchdown speed was faster than recommended. Additionally, the touchdown point was significantly beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned.
