The rule "Aircraft that land by planetfall are treated in the same manner as a landed aircraft (see 4.2.5)"
Does it meen that it's "Landing" or "Air Assault"?
Can the troops make an assault later in the turn? and the aircraft fire later too?

The reference to the aircraft rules is only for the purposes of how an aircraft that is on the ground is treated.  It is not meant to have any effect on the actions that the planetfalling units can take.

The aircraft follows the rules for planetfalling.  Once on the ground and can activate later in the turn as any planetfalling unit.

The actions of the loaded formation depend on its disposition.  If the formation disembarked as part of the planetfall, they are a separate formation and activate later as normal.  If they remained embarked on the aircraft, the aircraft is a 0cm move WE and the aircraft and loaded troops activate together according to the transport WE rules.
