At the threshold the aircraft crossed at 56 ft agl, which was slightly above target, and maintained a good threshold speed of 137 kt.

Touchdown occurred 450 m down the runway; the speed was 132 kt, a little fast, and the vertical rate was very hard at minus 532 fpm. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned, being 4.0 m off the centreline, and the total landing distance measured 1,541 m, representing 44 % of the 3,516 m runway.

Rollout alignment was very good, keeping the aircraft on the centreline for the remainder of the deceleration.

Reduce the touchdown speed to bring it closer to the target and aim for a softer vertical rate to avoid the very hard touchdown. Adjust the flare to improve alignment and keep the touchdown point within a tighter centreline tolerance.
