Landing on runway 35 at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport in the Cessna CJ4 Citation

Landing Score 97.45 %

Landing Summary

The Cessna CJ4 Citation successfully landed at KMSP Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, achieving a score of 97.5%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south, heading 352.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,164 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning the aircraft with the runway threshold.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 35, which has a length of 7,996 feet. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was well above the target speed of 113 knots. This indicates that the pilot had sufficient control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown distance of 1,357 feet was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's energy and touch down smoothly.

However, the touchdown speed of 102 knots was slightly faster than desired, which may have resulted in a slightly higher touchdown rate of -244 feet per minute (fpm). Despite this, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control over the aircraft's direction and orientation during the landing.

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 269°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component of 1 knot and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 2,890 feet was 36% of the runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

During the rollout, the aircraft maintained a very good alignment with the runway, indicating that the pilot had successfully transitioned from the landing phase to the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the pilot demonstrating good control and decision-making skills throughout the approach and landing phases.
