The Cessna Citation Longitude approached runway 01 at OE49 Mecca East Airport from the south on a final approach heading 6.0° at 4 nm and 1,545 ft AGL. Local weather was 43 °C with wind 17 kt from 298°, providing a 5 kt headwind component and a 17 kt crosswind component.
Threshold height was good and the aircraft crossed the threshold at a speed of 122 kt, which was well above the target speed.
Touchdown occurred 109 m down the runway, a distance described as good, with a touchdown speed of 119 kt that was a little fast. The vertical rate at touchdown was smooth at minus 102 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 569 m, representing 26 % of the runway, and rollout alignment was very good.
Reduce the final-approach speed to meet the target value to avoid the slight excess observed at threshold and touchdown, and fine-tune flare timing to bring touchdown speed closer to the optimum without compromising alignment.
