Landing Summary

The aircraft, Black Square Starship N45FL, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The final approach to runway 12 was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 115.0° at 2 nautical miles and 876 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, as evidenced by the good threshold height and the slightly above-target threshold speed of 116 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown speed of 86 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -14 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was spot on, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately navigate the aircraft onto the runway.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the tailwind component was 2 knots. These conditions did not pose any significant challenges to the landing, and the aircraft handled them with ease.

The total landing distance of 1,832 meters was 67% of the runway length, which is a respectable achievement. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase, ensuring a safe and stable taxiing process.

Overall, the landing of Black Square Starship N45FL at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was a success, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of aspects, including approach, touchdown, and rollout.
