The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 55.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,246 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, aligning perfectly with the runway threshold.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on runway 06, which has a length of 6,373 feet. The threshold height was satisfactory, but the threshold speed was slightly higher than ideal at 106 knots.

The touchdown speed of 96 knots was faster than recommended, but the touchdown rate of -199 feet per minute (fpm) was good, suggesting a stable and controlled landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 59°F and a gentle wind of 3 knots from 270°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 2 knots each, which contributed to a stable and controlled approach. The total landing distance of 2,369 feet was 37% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and controlled path after touchdown. Overall, the landing was executed smoothly and safely, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and landing phases.
