The Boeing 747-8 aircraft successfully landed at OEJN King Abdulaziz International Airport, achieving a score of 96.5%. The final approach to runway 34R was initiated from the south, with the aircraft heading 339.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,261 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway with a speed of 143 knots, which was slightly above the optimal threshold speed. However, the touchdown distance of 198 meters was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was notably high at -504 feet per minute, indicating a hard landing.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 4.0 meters, which may have contributed to the hard landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 32°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 310°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 3 knots, which may have affected the aircraft's approach and landing.
Despite the hard landing, the aircraft's runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilots maintained control and stability during the landing roll. The total landing distance of 1,206 meters was 30% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of touchdown speed and rate.
