After crossing the threshold at 75 knots power was reduced to idle and a landing flare commenced at about 25 feet above ground level. The aircraft floated for some distance before the nose wheel contacted the ground heavily 400 metres from the threshold. A bounce ensued followed by a further heavy touchdown on the nose wheel which then collapsed and was torn off as the aircraft slid on its nose for 98 metres.
