The flight began with the departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the aircraft, a Black Square Starship N45FL, taking off into the local weather conditions. The temperature was a mild 16 °C, and the wind was blowing at a gentle 2 kt from a direction of 269 °. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 kt and a headwind of 2 kt.
As the aircraft lifted off the ground, it reached a liftoff speed of 120 kt, and it covered a takeoff distance of 1,059 m, which was 39% of the runway length. The aircraft then began its enroute level cruise, flying overhead Troon in Scotland, and it maintained this level for 1 minute, covering a distance of 4 nm.
The aircraft then started its enroute climb, beginning 3 miles south of Saltcoats in North Ayrshire, Scotland. It climbed from an altitude of 889 ft above sea level to 1,520 ft, an increase of 630 ft, in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 3 nm. The climb was a smooth and efficient one, allowing the aircraft to reach its desired altitude quickly.
After reaching its cruising altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent, starting 3 miles southwest of Troon. It descended from 1,518 ft to 614 ft, a decrease of 904 ft, in 2 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nm. This descent was also a smooth and controlled one, allowing the aircraft to reach its desired altitude without any issues.
The final approach to runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport was made from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 125.0 ° at 1 nm and 557 ft above ground level. The landing was made on the runway, which was 2,737 m long, and the threshold height was good. The threshold speed was well above the target speed, at 122 kt, and the touchdown point was 755 m beyond the touchdown zone.
The touchdown speed was a good 86 kt, and the touchdown rate was perfect at 3 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as at the time of departure, with a temperature of 16 °C and a wind blowing at 2 kt from a direction of 270 °, resulting in a crosswind of 1 kt and a tailwind of 2 kt.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 16 nm and took 7 minutes to complete, using 49 kg of fuel in the process. The flight was a smooth and efficient one, with the aircraft performing well in a variety of conditions.

The aircraft, Black Square Starship N45FL, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The final approach to runway 12 was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 125.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 557 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, with the threshold height being well within acceptable limits. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering at 122 knots. This minor deviation from the target speed did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall landing performance.
The touchdown point was located 755 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate a slight over-shooting of the intended landing spot. Nevertheless, the touchdown speed of 86 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of 3 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing process. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 270°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, and the tailwind component was 2 knots, which did not appear to have any significant impact on the landing performance.
Overall, the landing of Black Square Starship N45FL at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was a successful operation, with the aircraft demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its flight operations. The minor deviations from the target speed and touchdown point did not appear to have any significant impact on the overall landing performance, and the aircraft's touchdown speed, rate, and runway alignment were all within acceptable limits.
