Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport took less than a minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Beechcraft A36 Bonanza, then began its departure roll on runway 30, utilizing 365 meters, or 13% of the runway's length, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 80 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern from runway 30, it demonstrated a swift and precise turn, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 21 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn, also from the left, was completed in 34 seconds, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading. The pattern's downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway, was executed smoothly, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then proceeded to the base leg, where it turned through another 45-degree angle, before commencing the final approach to runway 30 from the southeast.

The final approach was characterized by a heading of 300.0° at 1 nautical mile and 364 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 61 knots, with a touchdown distance of 400 meters, or 26% of the runway's length. The touchdown rate was a perfect -44 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Following touchdown, the aircraft rolled out on the runway, maintaining perfect alignment. The total landing distance was 723 meters, and the aircraft used a total of 73 kilograms of fuel for the flight, which covered a distance of 9 nautical miles and took approximately 5 minutes to complete.
