The flight began with the departure roll from runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the Black Square Starship N45FL took off with a takeoff distance of 73 meters, which is just 3% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 94 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 12, with a distance of less than 1 nautical mile covered in 74 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was also noted, with a distance of 1 nautical mile covered in 16 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to complete the pattern, including a downwind turn with a distance of 5 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 47.4 degrees. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 33 seconds to complete.

The base leg turn was the next phase of the pattern, with a distance of 4 nautical miles and an angle to the runway of 94.3 degrees. The base leg was less than 1 nautical mile long and took 14 seconds to complete. The final turn was the last phase of the pattern, with a distance of 3 nautical miles and taking 244 seconds to complete.

The final approach to runway 12 was made from the north-west, with a heading of 130 degrees and an altitude of 508 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown point 327 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 83 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -61 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.1 meters from the centerline.

The total landing distance was 1,277 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The total flight distance was 16 nautical miles, and the flight took 11 minutes to complete. The aircraft used 64 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The aircraft, Black Square Starship N45FL, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 130.0° at 1 nautical mile and 508 feet above ground level (agl), indicating a precise and controlled descent.

Upon reaching the runway, the aircraft touched down at a speed of 106 kt, which is considered good for the threshold speed. The touchdown point was located 327 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed of 83 kt was still within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -61 fpm was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 kt, and the tailwind component was 2 kt, which had a negligible impact on the landing. The runway length of 2,737 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out safely.

The total landing distance of 1,277 meters was 47% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and aligned it with the centerline of the runway.

Overall, the landing of Black Square Starship N45FL at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was a success, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing procedures. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the precise and controlled descent, smooth touchdown, and excellent touchdown rate.
