The final approach to runway 26R at OJAI Queen Alia International Airport was conducted from the east, heading 261.0° at 4 nm and 1,313 ft above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 77 ft above ground level, which was well above the target. The threshold speed was good at 143 kt, indicating a well-controlled descent.
As the aircraft touched down 290 m beyond the touchdown zone, the touchdown speed of 129 kt was good, suggesting a smooth and controlled touchdown. However, the touchdown rate of -256 fpm was fair, indicating a slightly higher than ideal rate of descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft remaining centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 29 °C and a 7 kt headwind, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 1,805 m was 49% of the runway length, which is within acceptable limits. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 86.2%. While there were some minor deviations from ideal performance, the crew's skills and the aircraft's capabilities ensured a safe and controlled landing.
