This flight was conducted in a Piper Aerostar 600 aircraft, registered as NI22PC. The aircraft took off from a low altitude of 60 feet above sea level and began its enroute climb, ascending to 989 feet above sea level in just one minute, covering a distance of one nautical mile. This rapid ascent was achieved from a location overhead Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft transitioned into a level cruise, maintaining a steady altitude as it flew over Prestwick in South Ayrshire, Scotland. This cruise phase lasted for two minutes and covered a distance of one nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The approach was made from the south east, with the aircraft heading in a direction of 302.0 degrees at an altitude of 201 feet above ground level and a distance of zero nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 30, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 96 knots. The touchdown point was located 295 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was 76 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a descent rate of -108 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a precise and controlled landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius, with a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 2 knots. The total landing distance was 1,605 meters, which accounted for 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration of the aircraft after touchdown.

The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, successfully landed at Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) on runway 30. The pilot demonstrated excellent control and precision throughout the final approach, achieving a score of 95.3%. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south east, heading 302.0° at an altitude of 201 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the pilot maintained a good threshold height and speed, touching down at 96 knots. The touchdown point was 295 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 76 knots was also within acceptable limits, and the rate of descent was smooth at -108 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and alignment throughout the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle headwind of 2 knots. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, which further contributed to the smooth landing. The total landing distance of 1,605 meters was 59% of the available runway length, which is a reasonable distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
During the rollout, the pilot maintained excellent alignment, with the aircraft tracking very close to the centerline of the runway. This indicates that the pilot had maintained control and was able to smoothly transition from the landing phase to the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
