What went well

Touched down at -103 fpm — a soft arrival
Touchdown 501 m in — inside the full-score zone
Straight touchdown — 2.44 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 42 %, Threshold height at 65 ft agl was above target at 77 %, −2.26 points
Pattern Downwind Turn — Angle to runway (45 degrees) 65.9 ° at 36 %, −0.91 points
Departure Climb 2 — scored 90.00 %, −0.83 points

Next time

Work on the flare

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight was conducted in a Beechcraft A36 Bonanza aircraft, departing from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. Taxiing from the parking area to the runway took less than a minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll was smooth, with a takeoff distance of 465 meters, which accounted for 17% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 85 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 2 knots. The pilot navigated a right-hand pattern entry from runway 30, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile in 28 seconds.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern, it encountered a crosswind of 2 knots, which was managed by the pilot in a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 11 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was executed at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a distance of 2 nautical miles. The downwind leg of the pattern covered a distance of 3 nautical miles in 67 seconds.

The pilot then initiated the base leg turn, which was also at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a distance of 2 nautical miles. The base leg itself covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 29 seconds. The final turn was executed in a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 39 seconds, setting up the aircraft for a final approach to runway 30 from the south-east.

The final approach was conducted at a heading of 302.0 degrees, with the aircraft at an altitude of 1 nautical mile and 304 feet above ground level. The landing was smooth, with the touchdown point being 61 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 61 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was excellent at -62 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 340 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 1 knot. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, taking 5 minutes to complete, and the aircraft used 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing report
Landing on runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport in the Beechcraft Bonanza A36
Landing Score 92.21 %
Landing Summary

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a score of 92.2%. The aircraft approached the runway from the south east, heading 302.0° at 1 nautical mile and 304 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled approach, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 30, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height at 65 feet agl was above the target, suggesting that the pilot may have been slightly high on the approach. However, the threshold speed of 82 knots was only slightly above the target, indicating that the pilot maintained control and managed the aircraft's speed effectively.

The touchdown point was 61 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. The touchdown speed of 61 knots was good, indicating that the pilot managed to slow the aircraft down effectively before touchdown. The touchdown rate of -62 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, demonstrating a smooth and controlled descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach to the runway. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 12°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 340°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more challenging and impressive.

Overall, the pilot's performance was commendable, achieving a high score despite a slightly high threshold height and a minor deviation from the touchdown zone. The smooth and controlled descent, combined with the good touchdown speed and excellent touchdown rate, demonstrate a high level of skill and expertise.
