However, the touchdown distance of 168 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 126 knots was also within acceptable limits, further emphasizing the pilot's skill in executing a precise landing.
One area of concern was the touchdown rate, which was recorded at -564 feet per minute. This is considered a very hard touchdown, suggesting that the aircraft may have been brought down too quickly. Nevertheless, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control and alignment throughout the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 6 knots from 220°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the headwind component was 5 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing.
The total landing distance of 819 meters was 37% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and alignment throughout the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the pilot demonstrating good skills and control throughout the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases. However, the hard touchdown rate is an area that requires attention to ensure that the aircraft is brought down smoothly and safely in the future.
