The aircraft touched down smoothly on runway 17 at YMPC RAAF Williams, Point Cook Base, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. The approach quality was good, with a threshold speed of 67 kt, which was achieved without difficulty. The touchdown distance of 246 m was also satisfactory, indicating a well-executed flare. The touchdown speed of 59 kt was within the desired range, and the touchdown rate of -101 fpm was smooth, suggesting a gentle touchdown.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light headwind of 1 kt, contributed to a stable and predictable approach. The aircraft's performance was consistent with the pilot's skill and experience. The total landing distance of 759 m, which accounted for 55% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits.
The rollout phase was generally smooth, but the aircraft's alignment was slightly off, deviating from the centreline by 14.6 m. This minor deviation did not significantly impact the overall performance, and the aircraft came to a stop without incident. Overall, the landing was considered satisfactory, with a score of 92.1%. The pilot's attention to detail and ability to execute a smooth touchdown were notable, but the slight misalignment during the rollout phase prevented a perfect score.
