This flight was conducted in a Navion L-17B aircraft, taking off from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The taxiing process from the parking area to the runway was swift, taking less than a minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 85 knots within a short distance of 400 meters, which is approximately 15% of the runway length.
The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component. The aircraft entered a left-hand pattern from runway 30, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 98 seconds. The subsequent downwind turn was executed at an angle of 2.8 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.
The downwind leg of the pattern was completed in 74 seconds, after which the aircraft initiated a go-around procedure at an altitude of 0 feet above ground level. The final approach to runway 30 was made from the southeast, heading 301.0 degrees at an altitude of 98 feet above ground level and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The landing was executed at a threshold speed of 76 knots, with a touchdown point located 230 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 65 knots, and the touchdown rate was an impressive -87 feet per minute, indicating an excellent rate of descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 1,184 meters, which is approximately 43% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees. The aircraft used a total of 3 kilograms of fuel during the flight, which covered a distance of 5 nautical miles and took approximately 7 minutes to complete.

The Navion L-17B aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The aircraft approached the runway from the south east, aligning itself with the runway at a heading of 301.0° at an altitude of 98 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon reaching the threshold of the runway, the aircraft maintained a good height, adhering to the standard threshold height. The pilot then reduced the aircraft's speed to 76 knots, which is the recommended threshold speed for a safe landing. The touchdown point was located 230 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, indicating a slight overrun but still within a safe distance.
The touchdown speed of 65 knots was slightly lower than the threshold speed, which is a good indication of the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown rate of -87 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, demonstrating the pilot's skill in managing the aircraft's descent and ensuring a smooth landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a consistent heading and alignment with the runway throughout the approach and landing phases. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The total landing distance of 1,184 meters was 43% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. This suggests that the pilot executed a smooth and controlled landing, minimizing the aircraft's deceleration and rollout distance. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing phase and ensured a safe and stable rollout.
Overall, the landing of the Navion L-17B aircraft at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was a success, demonstrating the pilot's high level of skill and proficiency in executing a safe and controlled landing.
