The final approach was conducted from the north, heading 160.0° at 1 nautical mile and 426 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 15, which has a length of 1,991 meters.

The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was maintained at 116 knots, indicating a good approach speed. However, the touchdown speed of 109 knots was slightly faster than ideal, which may have contributed to a firm touchdown rate of -368 feet per minute (fpm). The touchdown distance of 375 meters was within acceptable limits.

Despite the satisfactory approach and touchdown, the aircraft's runway touchdown position was misaligned by 11.0 meters from the centerline. This may have been due to factors such as crosswind or pilot error. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29°C, with a wind speed of 10 knots from 350°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was 9 knots.

The total landing distance of 1,648 meters was 83% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 10.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the same factors that contributed to the initial touchdown position misalignment.

Overall, while the landing was satisfactory, there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown speed and alignment. However, the aircraft's overall performance was acceptable, and the pilot demonstrated a good understanding of the approach and landing procedures.
