The flight began with a departure roll from runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the Wilga 80 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 71 meters, which is just 3% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 72 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the west.
After taking off, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which lasted for just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This brief cruise phase allowed the aircraft to reach a cruising altitude before beginning its descent for landing.
The final approach to runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport was initiated from the south-east, with the aircraft heading towards the runway at a bearing of 318.0 degrees. At this point, the aircraft was 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 387 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 137 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 68 knots, which was considered excessively fast. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at 10 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was only slightly misaligned from the centerline by 3.4 meters.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a stronger wind of 14 knots from the south-west. The crosswind component was 13 knots, while the tailwind component was 6 knots.
The total landing distance was 2,654 meters, which is 97% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had successfully controlled the aircraft during the landing phase. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight used a total of -10 kilograms of fuel.

The aircraft in question, a Wilga 80, has completed a landing at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with a score of 67.2%. The final approach to runway 30 was initiated from the south east, heading 318.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 387 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 137 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a significant deviation from the intended landing spot. The touchdown speed of 68 knots was also excessively high, indicating that the pilot may have been unable to maintain a stable approach speed. However, the touchdown rate of 10 feet per minute was perfect, suggesting that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent effectively.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 14 knots from a direction of 185°. This resulted in a crosswind of 13 knots and a tailwind of 6 knots, which may have contributed to the difficulties experienced during the landing. The runway length at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport is 2,737 meters, which is more than sufficient to accommodate the Wilga 80's landing distance of 2,654 meters, or 97% of the runway.
Despite the challenges encountered during the landing, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the critical phase of the landing. However, the high touchdown speed and excessive distance beyond the touchdown zone suggest that the pilot may have been unable to execute a smooth and controlled landing. Overall, the landing was not without its issues, and the pilot may benefit from additional training to improve their skills in this area.
