The Boeing 727-200 aircraft successfully landed at FALA Lanseria International Airport, achieving a score of 93.5%. The final approach to runway 07 was initiated from the south-west, with a heading of 48.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,350 feet above ground level.
The aircraft touched down on the runway with a good threshold height, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 126 knots. The touchdown distance was within acceptable limits at 251 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 122 knots. However, the touchdown rate was slightly hard at -422 feet per minute, which may indicate a slightly aggressive approach.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.5 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions were relatively calm, with a temperature of 14°C, a wind speed of 2 knots at 105°, and a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 1,730 meters, which is 59% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the aircraft was well-controlled during the approach and landing phases. However, the runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned from the centreline by 10.8 meters, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there were some minor deviations from the ideal approach and landing parameters. These deviations were not significant enough to compromise the safety of the aircraft or its occupants, but they do highlight areas for improvement in the pilot's technique and the aircraft's performance.
