Departure

Use smoother, smaller aileron inputs to keep the wings level and hold bank angle near wings-level during the climb.

What happened: During the climb, bank angle rose to 1.4°, more roll than the climb out called for.

Watch for: Attitude indicator: wings level during the climb

See Departure Climb 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

Flight narrative

The flight began with the departure roll from runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, Sirius, took off with a takeoff distance of 85 meters, which is just 3% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 67 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 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 climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 426 feet above sea level to 467 feet, an increase of 41 feet, in just 1 minute. This climb covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, coming in from the south east at a heading of 307.0 degrees and at an altitude of 403 feet above ground level, which is 1 nautical mile from the runway.

The landing on runway 30 was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 44 knots and a touchdown distance of 372 meters. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target speed of 58 knots, but the touchdown rate was perfect at -18 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, 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 wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.

The flight was relatively short, covering a total distance of 2 nautical miles and taking just 3 minutes to complete. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight, indicating a high degree of efficiency and control. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and controlled operations, with a high degree of precision and accuracy throughout.

Landing Score 95.14 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft, identified as Sirius, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport with a high score of 95.1%. The final approach was conducted from the south east, aligning with a heading of 307.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 403 feet above ground level (agl).

Upon landing on runway 30, which has a length of 2,737 meters, the aircraft demonstrated good control and precision. The threshold height was satisfactory, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 58 knots. This minor deviation did not appear to impact the overall performance of the landing.

The touchdown distance of 372 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled descent. The touchdown speed of 44 knots was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating that the pilot was able to manage the aircraft's speed effectively. The touchdown rate of -18 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, suggesting that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and without any significant impact.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway and that the pilot was able to maintain a stable approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots, which likely contributed to the smooth and controlled nature of the landing.
