The DA42-VI aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a high score of 98.5%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 107.0° at 1 nautical mile and 688 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated precise control and navigation skills, aligning perfectly with the runway during the approach.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 75 knots, which may be a minor area for improvement.
The touchdown distance of 198 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to slow down effectively and maintain control during the landing. The touchdown speed of 59 knots was also reported as good, suggesting that the aircraft was able to touch down at a safe and controlled speed. The touchdown rate of -72 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating that the aircraft was able to absorb the impact of landing smoothly and safely.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly above-target threshold speed. Overall, the landing was considered safe and controlled, with the aircraft demonstrating good handling and navigation skills.
