The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, utilizing a C408 SkyCourier Cargo aircraft. The takeoff distance required was 310 meters, which accounted for 11% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 116 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern, it did so from runway 30, with the distance covered being less than 1 nautical mile in 22 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind maneuver was completed in under 1 nautical mile in 8 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to execute a pattern downwind turn, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 73.8 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nautical miles over a period of 60 seconds.

Following the downwind leg, the aircraft turned onto the base leg, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 54.7 degrees to the runway. The base leg itself was completed in under 1 nautical mile in 19 seconds. The final turn was executed in under 1 nautical mile in 24 seconds, after which the aircraft began its final approach to runway 30 from the south-east, heading 307.0 degrees at an altitude of 190 feet above ground level.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 239 meters beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 68 knots and a rate of descent of -181 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was deemed very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees.

The total landing distance covered was 1,036 meters, which accounted for 38% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, and the aircraft utilized 18 kilograms of fuel for the entire flight, which spanned a total distance of 6 nautical miles and took approximately 4 minutes to complete.

Landing Summary

The aircraft, a Cessna 408 SkyCourier Cargo, successfully landed at Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) on runway 30. The final approach was initiated from the southeast, heading 307.0°, and the aircraft was at an altitude of 190 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 239 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively short distance. The touchdown speed of 68 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -181 feet per minute (fpm) was also good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component, making the landing even more straightforward. The total landing distance of 1,036 meters was 38% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop in a stable and aligned manner. Overall, the landing was successful, with a score of 90.4%, indicating a high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot.
