Top opportunity

Slow the descent speed

Enroute Descent

Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

Read more in Descent Planning

Departure

Rotate the moment the speed tape reaches 125 kt, not after it.

What happened: Rotation was held until 138 kt, 13 kt past the 125 kt rotation target. Carrying that much extra speed into rotation usually adds unwanted energy right at liftoff.

Arrival

Add power on short final to hold 123 kt at the threshold rather than letting speed decay.

What happened: You crossed the threshold at 108 kt against a target of 123 kt, below reference speed.

Flight narrative

The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 15L at KSPS Wichita Falls Municipal Airport, a movement that required 6 minutes and covered 1 nm.

During the departure roll on runway 15L, the aircraft traveled 2,749 ft (46 % of the runway) before liftoff at 138 kt. Ambient conditions were a temperature of 62 °F, wind from 269° at 3 kt, a 2-kt crosswind component and a 1-kt tailwind component.

Climb commenced 1 mile southeast of KSPS, with the airplane ascending from 1,962 ft asl to 25,009 ft asl - a gain of 23,048 ft - over 10 minutes while covering 61 nm.

The first cruise segment began 2 miles northwest of T28 Cain, lasting 30 minutes and extending 256 nm at level flight.

Descent started 3 miles southwest of KPOE Polk Army Air Field, where the aircraft reduced altitude from 25,000 ft asl to 1,991 ft asl, a loss of 23,009 ft, in 14 minutes while traversing 83 nm.

A brief cruise followed 4 miles southwest of Krotz Springs, lasting 3 minutes and covering 12 nm.

The next descent began overhead LA05 Baton Rouge Heliport, with altitude decreasing from 1,996 ft asl to 1,315 ft asl - a drop of 681 ft - in 2 minutes and a distance of 4 nm.

Final approach to runway 22L at KLFT Lafayette Regional Airport was executed from the northeast, on a heading of 219.0°, at 4 nm and 1,266 ft agl.

Landing on runway 22L, which measures 7,655 ft, was achieved with a threshold speed slightly below target at 108 kt. Touchdown occurred 638 ft down the runway at 104 kt, with a firm vertical rate of minus 338 fpm and excellent alignment. Local weather reported a temperature of 59 °F, wind from 270° at 2 kt, a 2-kt crosswind and a 2-kt headwind component.

The total landing roll measured 2,514 ft, representing 33 % of the runway length, and the rollout alignment was offset by 51 ft from the centreline.

After exiting the runway, the aircraft taxied to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.

Overall, the flight covered 423 nm, required 71 minutes of airborne time, and consumed 231 lb of fuel.

Landing report
Landing on runway 22L at KLFT Lafayette Regional Airport in the Cessna 750 Citation X
Landing Score 87.31 %
Landing Summary

The Cessna 750 Citation X approached runway 22L at KLFT Lafayette Regional Airport from the north-east on a heading of 219.0° at 4 nm and 1,266 ft agl. The final approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits.

At threshold the aircraft established a speed of 108 kt, noted as a little below target, and the flare was executed with the aircraft maintaining the good threshold height observed on the approach.

Touchdown occurred 638 ft down the runway at a speed of 104 kt, with a firm vertical rate of minus 338 fpm. Runway touchdown alignment was very good and the total landing distance measured 2,514 ft, representing 33 % of the 7,655 ft runway. Local weather was 59 °F with wind 2 kt from 270°, including a 2 kt crosswind and a 2 kt headwind.

During rollout the aircraft deviated 51 ft from the centreline, indicating a misalignment in the final ground track.

The overall score of 93.7 % reflects a strong performance; refining the approach speed to meet the target and tightening rollout alignment will further improve precision.
