Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, a GA-8 Airvan CAP Commuter, successfully took off after covering a distance of 185 meters, which accounted for 7% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 85 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

Following the takeoff, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern from runway 30, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 19 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind turn was even quicker, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 8 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind leg, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile and making a turn at an angle of 76.7 degrees relative to the runway. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nautical miles and took 69 seconds to complete.

As the aircraft approached the base leg, it made a turn at an angle of 58.4 degrees relative to the runway, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The base leg itself was short, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. The final turn was also brief, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 23 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 30 from the south-east, heading 303.0 degrees at an altitude of 125 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down 50 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was recorded at 50 knots, and the touchdown rate was an impressive -66 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees.

In total, the flight covered a distance of 6 nautical miles and lasted for 4 minutes, consuming 2 kilograms of fuel in the process.

Landing Score 90.96 %
Landing Summary

The GA-8 Airvan CAP Commuter aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a score of 91.0%. The final approach to runway 30 was conducted from the south east, aligning with a heading of 303.0° at an altitude of 125 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 50 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 50 knots was slightly below the target threshold speed of 71 knots, indicating a controlled and gentle touchdown. The aircraft's descent rate was impressive, with a touchdown rate of -66 feet per minute (fpm), which is an excellent performance.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and accurate approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, which further contributed to the smooth landing.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of control and precision. The pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft to a safe touchdown, despite a slightly above-target threshold height, is a testament to their skill and experience.
