Departure

Apply small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline during the roll.

What happened: The aircraft tracked 8.4 m off the runway centreline during the ground roll, and flights with this pattern usually carry extra bank, around 2.9°, into the first climb.

Watch for: Heading indicator: wings level, tracking the runway centreline

See Departure RollDeparture Climb 1

A small uncorrected heading error at 40 knots becomes a metre of offset per second by 100 knots, noticed only at rotation, producing a crabbed liftoff. Root cause is nearly always eyes on the tape instead of the far end of the runway. Small heading changes displace a distant point visibly long before the nearby centreline stripes look wrong.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with registration NI22PC, successfully took off. The takeoff distance covered 18% of the runway, and the liftoff speed was achieved at 99 kt. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt at 270 °, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 2 kt.

As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb from 1,062 ft above sea level (asl) to 1,718 ft asl, an increase of 656 ft in just 2 minutes, while covering a distance of 3 nm. This climb phase took place overhead Monkton, a location in South Ayrshire, Scotland. Following the climb, the aircraft initiated its enroute descent from 1,708 ft asl to 272 ft asl, a decrease of 1,437 ft in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nm. This descent phase occurred overhead Troon, another location in South Ayrshire, Scotland.

The final approach to runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was conducted from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 121.0 ° at 1 nm and 214 ft above ground level (agl). The landing was executed successfully, with the touchdown point located 66 m beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 70 kt, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -4 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 2 kt at 270 °, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a tailwind of 2 kt. The total flight distance was 7 nm, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft consumed -84 kg of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport in the Piper Aerostar 600
Landing Score 99.43 %
Landing Summary

The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with the registration NI22PC, successfully landed at Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) with a score of 99.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, aligning with the runway 12 threshold at a heading of 121.0°, 1 nautical mile away and at an altitude of 214 feet above ground level (agl).

The pilot executed a precise landing, touching down on the runway 66 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 70 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -4 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's skill and attention to detail.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from 270°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots, which did not pose any significant challenges to the pilot. Overall, the landing was executed flawlessly, with the pilot demonstrating exceptional skill and control throughout the approach and touchdown phases.
