The flight in question was conducted using a Sierra C24R aircraft. The enroute climb phase began over Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland, where the aircraft lifted off from a height of 67 feet above sea level and climbed to 846 feet above sea level in just one minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This impressive climb rate of 779 feet per minute allowed the aircraft to quickly gain altitude and reach its cruising altitude.
Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started over Loans in South Ayrshire, Scotland. During this phase, the aircraft maintained a steady altitude for two minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. This stable cruise phase allowed the aircraft to conserve fuel and maintain a consistent speed.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The approach was made from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 119.0 degrees at an altitude of 596 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good runway touchdown alignment, with the touchdown point being 436 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height at 77 feet above ground level was well above the target, and the threshold speed was too high at 90 knots. However, the touchdown speed of 55 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -44 feet per minute was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from 220 degrees.
The total landing distance was 1,215 meters, which accounted for 44% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the aircraft had maintained control and stability during the landing phase. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes, with the aircraft using zero kilograms of fuel during the entire flight.

The aircraft, Sierra C24R, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving an overall score of 85.6%. The final approach was initiated from the north-west, heading 119.0° at 2 nautical miles and 596 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters.
However, there were some areas for improvement during the landing. The threshold height at 77 feet agl was significantly above the target, indicating that the aircraft may have been too high during the approach. Additionally, the threshold speed was too high at 90 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been unable to slow the aircraft down sufficiently before reaching the runway threshold.
Despite these issues, the touchdown point was 436 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 55 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -44 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot had maintained a stable and aligned approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 220°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a headwind of 0 knots. The total landing distance of 1,215 meters was 44% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.
Finally, the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and had successfully brought the aircraft to a stop in a stable and aligned manner. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, the pilot demonstrated good skills and control during the landing, achieving a respectable score of 85.6%.
