The flight, which occurred from Los Angeles International Airport to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, began with a taxiing period of four minutes from the parking area to the runway. The aircraft, identified as a RJ100, covered less than one nautical mile during this time.
As the flight departed, the RJ100 rolled onto runway 24L at KLAX and took off, achieving a liftoff speed of 143 knots. The local weather conditions were quite warm, with a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 18 knots from a direction of 260 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal, with just one knot, and the headwind had a significant contribution of 18 knots.
After a short period, the aircraft transitioned into its enroute climb, which began approximately one mile north of El Segundo, California. The RJ100 was able to climb from a starting altitude of 1,153 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 31,683 feet in 27 minutes, covering a total distance of 129 nautical miles. The climb profile showcased a considerable increase in altitude, with a rise of 30,530 feet.
Once the aircraft reached its cruising altitude, it entered an enroute level cruise, commencing two miles north of the 63CA Desert Air Sky Ranch Airport North Shore in California. This phase of the flight lasted nine minutes and covered 63 nautical miles. However, before long, the RJ100 began its descent, starting one mile south of the 56CL Morris Ag Air SW Airport Blythe in California. The descent phase was characterized by a decrease in altitude from 32,200 feet to 2,401 feet in 27 minutes, covering 135 nautical miles.
As the flight progressed, the RJ100 prepared for final approach onto runway 26 at KPHX, heading in an easterly direction with a bearing of 270 degrees. The aircraft was positioned approximately four nautical miles from the runway and 1,271 feet above ground level.
Landing on the runway was a significant milestone in the flight, occurring with the aircraft touching down just beyond the threshold. The touchdown point was 100 meters past the designated touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 107 knots was satisfactory. However, the touchdown rate of -208 feet per minute was somewhat suboptimal. Nevertheless, the runway alignment for touchdown and rollout was flawless, allowing the RJ100 to maintain its intended trajectory.
Post-touchdown, the aircraft continued to roll out, eventually coming to a complete stop after a relatively short distance. The total landing distance covered 991 meters, or approximately 31% of the runway. Once stopped, the RJ100 was taxiing towards the parking area, covering 1 nautical mile in eight minutes.
Ultimately, the flight concluded with a total distance traveled of 334 nautical miles and an elapsed time of 77 minutes. The aircraft utilized 2,503 kilograms of fuel during the entire journey, underscoring the efficiency of the RJ100's performance under varying conditions.

Taxiing from the parking to the runway took 4 minutes and covered less than 1 nm.

The aircraft, an RJ100, successfully landed on runway 26 at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, KPHX, from a final approach coming from the east at a heading of 270.0°. At approximately 4 nautical miles from the runway and an altitude of 1,271 feet above ground level (agl), the aircraft executed a precise touchdown on the runway. The touchdown speed of 107 knots was within the acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled approach.
The touchdown point was situated 100 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which might be considered a slight overshot. However, given the circumstances, the margin was not significant enough to classify it as a major deviation. Moreover, the threshold height, which typically signifies the point at which the aircraft transitions from a descent to a touchdown, was deemed 'good.'
A noteworthy observation is that the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 116 knots when the aircraft touched down. This indicates that the aircraft was flying a stable approach and did not need to flare (i.e., reduce descent rate) as aggressively as it would have in a higher-speed approach.
Other factors also contributed to the successful landing. A favorable wind condition, characterized by a headwind of 1 knot from a southeasterly direction (221°), and minimal crosswind of the same magnitude, helped in stabilizing the aircraft during the descent and touchdown phases. The temperature at the time of the landing was a relatively mild 39°C (102°F).
In terms of the touchdown performance of the RJ100, a descent rate of -208 feet per minute indicates an acceptable rate of closure to the ground. Although not outstanding, the touchdown rate was still a fair reflection of the pilot's skills in navigating the aircraft safely toward the runway surface.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft came to a stop 991 meters down the runway, covering approximately 31% of the runway's length. This distance indicates a satisfactory rollout performance. In addition, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, reflecting the smooth and controlled manner in which the aircraft slowed down upon touchdown.
In conclusion, all the key performance parameters of the RJ100's landing on runway 26 at KPHX were within acceptable limits, making it a successful and safe operation under the given weather conditions. The pilot's skill and experience were evident in ensuring a stable, controlled approach, and subsequent touchdown.
