Narrative:

Event: struck right landing light on medium large transport due to wing low attitude in landing flare. Captain flying aircraft. Crew on duty since previous evening flying dfw-ont-dfw. Third straight night trip out of 3 in a row. During 2 hour and 15 min situation around in ont, no rest facs provided by company. Crew meals scheduled ont-dfw, but not placed on board. Snack bar/restaurant closed at ont. Fatigue a very large factor in this incident. Captain was restr (less than 300 hours in aircraft) so required higher (1800 RVR) minimums. Autoland (CAT III) not authority/authorized for this captain. I flew entire approach using flight guidance system to decision height (200'). All parameters normal. Air carrier Y medium large transport landed with 5 mi reported spacing in front of us. At 200' captain called 'approach lights in sight.' at 150' he disconnected the autoplt and autothrottles. Immediately we went 1 DOT high and slightly left. I continued calls per company procedure. At just under 100' he corrected, but lined up left of centerline. We floated to approximately 3000' down runway where turbulence from landing aircraft and drift correction allowed a momentary 10 degree right bank angle. Captain leveled aircraft and landed. Right landing light destroyed from ground impact. All nighters should have mandatory meal/rest requirements. A minimum standard is needed. The captain's low time in the aircraft (147 hours), plus inadequate rest and nutrition all contributed.
