Landing Lights at 15:27:00 |
The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KBTL Battle Creek Executive Airport at Kellogg Field, achieving a high score of 94.6%. The aircraft approached the runway from the northeast, heading 223.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,234 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a good threshold height, which is a crucial aspect of a safe landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 23R, which has a length of 9,989 feet. The threshold speed was also good, reaching 109 knots. The touchdown point was 541 feet beyond the touchdown zone, which is slightly off-center but still within acceptable limits. The touchdown speed of 94 knots was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -197 feet per minute (fpm) was also within the desired range, signifying a gentle and stable landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a wind speed of 2 knots from 269°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even smoother. The total landing distance of 2,994 feet was 30% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
One minor issue was the runway touchdown position, which was slightly misaligned by 15 feet from the centerline. However, this did not affect the overall performance of the landing, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. Overall, the Cessna CJ4 Citation demonstrated excellent landing skills, and the pilot's expertise was evident in the smooth and controlled touchdown.
