Flight Score
Departure
Raise the gear lever promptly once a positive climb is confirmed, before reaching the target retraction height.
What happened: Gear retraction was delayed, with the gear not coming up until 0 ft agl.
Watch for: Landing gear: up by the normal retraction gate
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
Make sure that you retract the landing gear once you have a positive rate of climb and there is no usable runway left to land back on.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 4.9° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,731 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 182 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone.
The rest of the report
Departing from Glasgow Prestwick Airport, the Phenom 300E took to the skies from runway 30, accelerating down the 1,175-meter stretch to a liftoff speed of 128 knots. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle 1-knot headwind from the west. The aircraft's climb performance was impressive, reaching an altitude of 1,433 feet above sea level in just one minute, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. This ascent began overhead Monkton, South Ayrshire, and marked the start of the enroute phase.
As the aircraft continued its journey, it began its descent over Loans, South Ayrshire, shedding 984 feet in altitude over a 2-minute period, while covering another 3 nautical miles. This controlled descent allowed the aircraft to maintain a safe and efficient flight path. Upon approaching Glasgow Prestwick Airport, the Phenom 300E initiated its final approach to runway 12, aligning itself with the northwest heading of 125.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile from the threshold and 343 feet above ground level. The landing was executed smoothly, with a touchdown speed of 84 knots and a rate of descent of -25 feet per minute, indicating a well-controlled and precise touchdown.
The Phenom 300E landed on runway 12, a 2,737-meter stretch, with a touchdown distance of 190 meters, slightly off-centerline by 3.7 meters. The local weather conditions remained unchanged, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a 1-knot tailwind from the west. The flight's total distance covered was 8 nautical miles, completed in 4 minutes, and the aircraft consumed 15 kilograms of fuel. Overall, the flight demonstrated a high level of proficiency and control, with the Phenom 300E performing well within its capabilities.
The aircraft touched down smoothly on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with a threshold height that met the required standards. The pilot maintained a steady approach, aligning with the runway centerline as the aircraft descended from 343 feet above ground level (agl) to the threshold. The threshold speed of 90 knots was achieved, indicating a well-controlled approach.
As the aircraft made contact with the runway surface, the touchdown distance of 190 meters was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown speed of 84 knots was slightly below the threshold speed, demonstrating a good control of the aircraft's descent. The touchdown rate of -25 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.7 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the approach or landing technique.
The aircraft rolled out smoothly along the runway, with the local weather conditions of 16°C temperature and 1 knot wind at 270° not posing any significant challenges. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which further contributed to a stable and controlled rollout. Overall, the landing was executed well, with a score of 99.7% indicating a high level of proficiency and control.
