Departure Roll — Landing Lights at 0 %, Strobe Lights at 0 %, −1.11 points

Next time

Departure

Level the wings with coordinated aileron to hold bank angle near zero during the initial climb, starting from 0.9°.

What happened: Bank angle was elevated during the initial climb and excess bank usually persists into the second climb segment.

Watch for: Attitude indicator, wings level with bank angle near zero degrees.

See Departure Climb 1Departure Climb 2

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 32 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 32 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 32 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza took off with a takeoff distance of 902 meters, which is 33% of the runway. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 88 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.

As the aircraft entered the enroute level cruise, it flew overhead Monkton, a location in South Ayrshire, Scotland, and remained at a constant altitude for 1 minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, coming in from the south east at a heading of 302.0 degrees and an altitude of 114 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed with precision, with the touchdown point being 101 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 64 knots, which is considered good, and the touchdown rate was perfect at -46 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were the same as during takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The total landing distance was 887 meters, which is 32% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled rollout. The total flight distance was 3 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes. The aircraft used 1 kilogram of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was executed with precision and control, and the aircraft performed well under the given weather conditions.

Landing Summary

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The aircraft approached the runway from the south east, heading 302.0° at an altitude of 114 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 101 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed of 64 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot maintained control and managed the aircraft's descent effectively. The touchdown rate of -46 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot achieved a smooth and controlled touchdown.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle headwind of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 knot, which further contributed to the smooth landing. The runway length of 2,737 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out, and the pilot made effective use of this space, with a total landing distance of 887 meters, which is just 32% of the runway length.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained the aircraft's heading and alignment with the runway during the final approach and touchdown. Similarly, the runway rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase and brought it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner. Overall, the landing was a credit to the pilot's skill and experience, and demonstrates a high level of proficiency in landing the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza.
