Smooth the climb

Departure Climb 2

A good takeoff has a defined shape. It also has a defined end. For an airliner that's thrust reduction and acceleration, commonly somewhere around 1,000 to 1,500 ft above the airfield depending on the operator, while for a light aircraft it's established at Vy with the flaps on schedule. Most simmers have no defined end to their takeoff, which is exactly why it never gets judged.

Flight narrative

Flight information was compiled for an aircraft that landed at General Mitchell International Airport, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, after flying from Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (Lovell Field) in Tennessee. The Cessna CJ4 Citation took 1 minute to taxi from its parking spot to the runway, covering less than a nautical mile, before departing from runway 02. At that point, the aircraft lifted off after traveling only 23% of the 1,679-foot runway, reaching liftoff speed at 136 knots.

Local conditions at the time of departure consisted of mild temperatures at 62°F and calm winds, with only 2 knots blowing at 270 degrees, resulting in virtually no tailwind or crosswind. As the aircraft ascended from Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport and climbed to an elevation of 25,000 feet, it covered a total distance of 46 nautical miles. This climb took 9 minutes to complete, rising from an initial height of 1,085 feet above sea level.

Once enroute level cruising commenced after passing 46 nautical miles, the pilot proceeded north of the Hogue Airport in Spencer, Tennessee, and followed the course for an extended period of 53 minutes, covering a total distance of 388 nautical miles. This prolonged period of level cruising allowed the crew to maintain a stable altitude while the aircraft traveled a significant distance, ultimately setting it on a course for its final destination.

As the aircraft transitioned into its enroute descent phase, descending from 25,007 feet above sea level to an altitude of 1,936 feet, it covered 61 nautical miles and reached its destination in Milwaukee. This descent, which lasted 18 minutes, prepared the aircraft for its landing on runway 19R at General Mitchell International Airport.

The crew navigated through local weather conditions, including mild temperatures, calm winds, and virtually no crosswind or headwind at their point of touchdown. The approach took the aircraft from 4 nautical miles north of the destination runway on a heading of 187 degrees at an altitude of 1,221 feet above ground level, resulting in a smooth and controlled landing on runway 19R. The threshold speed recorded at touchdown was a bit higher than the target, at 106 knots. However, the aircraft still managed a good touchdown distance, covering 979 feet on the runway. A slightly high touchdown speed of 98 knots and a descent rate of -178 feet per minute did not prevent a positive landing outcome.

Notably, the overall landing distance, which included the runway touchdown alignment, covered 2,174 feet, representing 24% of the runway's length of 8,902 feet. Following the landing, the aircraft rolled out to a stop, displaying a perfect runway rollout alignment. The flight came to a close after the crew conducted yet another brief taxiing period of 1 minute to return it to the parking spot, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance came to 500 nautical miles, which the crew completed within 85 minutes and managed without expending any additional fuel, as the aircraft reportedly used 0 pounds of fuel throughout the journey.

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at General Mitchell International Airport (KMKE) with a near-perfect performance. The aircraft approached from the north, with a heading of 187.0° at an altitude of 1,221 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. This was a well-executed final approach, allowing the pilot to position the aircraft for a smooth touchdown.

Upon landing, the pilot successfully touched down on runway 19R, which measures 8,902 feet in length. The threshold height was good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a steady glide slope during the approach. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 106 knots, indicating that the pilot may have been able to touch down slightly more gently.

The touchdown distance was respectable, at 979 feet, and the touchdown speed was 98 knots, which was slightly faster than ideal. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate was good, at -178 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting that the pilot had managed to maintain control of the aircraft despite the slightly fast touchdown speed.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were mild, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of just 2 knots from 270° (essentially a zero wind condition, as the aircraft's heading made most of the wind irrelevant). This minimal wind made it easier for the pilot to maintain a steady course and speed during the approach.

The aircraft's rollout was impressive, with perfect alignment on the runway. The total landing distance was 2,174 feet, which was just 24% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had executed a tight and efficient landing. Overall, this was a strong performance from the Cessna CJ4 Citation pilot, with a score of 99.8%.
