MY FS FLIGHTS
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, accelerated down the 244-meter runway, covering 9% of its length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 74 knots, marking the start of the flight.
As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern from runway 30, it covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 69 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind maneuver was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 11 seconds, showcasing the aircraft's agility and responsiveness.
The pilot then initiated a pattern downwind turn, covering a distance of 5 nautical miles at an angle of 35.2 degrees to the runway. This was followed by a downwind leg, which was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 13 seconds.
The final approach to runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport was made from the north-west, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 118.0 degrees at 3 nautical miles and 953 feet above ground level. The landing was executed smoothly, with the touchdown point being 70 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The touchdown speed of 52 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -3 feet per minute was perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also spot on, indicating a high degree of precision and control during the landing.
The total landing distance covered was 977 meters, which accounted for 36% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and expertise in managing the aircraft's descent and landing.
The flight itself covered a total distance of 11 nautical miles, taking approximately 10 minutes to complete. The aircraft used a total of 5 kilograms of fuel during the flight, indicating a relatively efficient use of resources.

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating exceptional piloting skills. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, heading 118.0° at a distance of 3 nautical miles and an altitude of 953 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, as evidenced by the high score of 99.0%.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 70 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed of 52 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -3 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, signifying a gentle and stable landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 228°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the tailwind component was even less at 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The total landing distance of 977 meters was 36% of the runway length, which is a respectable figure considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance capabilities. The high score and precise execution of the landing demonstrate a high level of proficiency and attention to detail.
