The flight began with the departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the aircraft, a Black Square Starship N45FL, taking off after a distance of 468 meters, which accounted for 17% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 123 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a headwind of 2 knots.

As the aircraft climbed, it started its enroute climb 1 mile west of Monkton, Scotland, and ascended from an altitude of 1,062 feet above sea level to 2,016 feet, an increase of 955 feet in just 1 minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. Following this climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise 1 mile west of Troon, Scotland, and maintained this altitude for 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nautical mile.

The final approach to runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 123.0 degrees at an altitude of 1,181 feet above ground level and a distance of 3 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was executed on a runway with a length of 2,737 meters, and the threshold height at 63 feet above ground level was above the target. The threshold speed was 105 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 340 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 83 knots and a touchdown rate of -157 feet per minute, which was considered good. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.6 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees, resulting in a tailwind of 2 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,409 meters, accounting for 51% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 11 minutes, during which the aircraft used 53 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport in the Black Square Starship N45FL

Landing Score 89.45 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, Black Square Starship N45FL, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport on runway 12. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 123.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,181 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's performance during the landing was satisfactory, with a touchdown speed of 83 kt, which was below the target threshold speed of 105 kt.

However, there were some minor deviations from the ideal landing parameters. The threshold height at 63 ft agl was above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been slightly higher than desired at the point of touchdown. Additionally, the touchdown point was 340 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which may have been due to a slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position. The runway touchdown position was slightly off-centerline by 4.6 meters, but the runway rollout alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 2 kt at 269°. The crosswind was minimal at 1 kt, and there was a slight tailwind of 2 kt. The total landing distance was 1,409 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway length. Overall, the landing was considered good, with a touchdown rate of -157 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
