The aircraft presented a good threshold height and achieved a threshold speed that was good at 134 kt.

Touchdown occurred 101 m beyond the designated touchdown zone with a touchdown speed that was good at 125 kt, a touchdown rate that was fair at minus 243 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment that was very good.

The total landing distance measured 1,812 m, representing 49 % of the 3,665 m runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.

Reduce the touchdown point offset to bring the landing closer to the touchdown zone and manage vertical speed to lessen the minus 243 fpm rate. These adjustments will further improve an already high score of 99.1%.
