The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the aircraft being a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche. The takeoff distance was 247 meters, which is 9% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 70 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 238 degrees.
As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 30, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 160 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind leg was slightly shorter, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile in 49 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was a significant portion of the flight, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with an angle of 6.0 degrees.
The final approach to runway 12 was made from the north-west, with the aircraft heading at 120.0 degrees at an altitude of 592 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 12 was successful, with a threshold height that was good and a threshold speed that was slightly above the target at 72 knots.
The touchdown distance was good at 409 meters, and the touchdown speed was 43 knots, which was also good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -64 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions during the landing were the same as before, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 238 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 672 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, and the flight took 6 minutes to complete, using 4 kilograms of fuel.

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills and adherence to standard operating procedures. The aircraft approached the runway from the north-west, aligning itself with the designated heading of 120.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 592 feet above ground level.
Upon reaching the runway threshold, the pilot executed a smooth touchdown, with the aircraft's speed slightly above the target threshold speed of 72 knots. This minor deviation from the target speed did not compromise the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 409 meters was also within acceptable limits, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach.
The touchdown speed of 43 knots was well within the recommended range, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's energy and maintained a safe rate of descent. The touchdown rate of -64 feet per minute was particularly impressive, showcasing the pilot's expertise in executing a controlled and gentle touchdown.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle wind of 3 knots from 238°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and the tailwind component was negligible at 1 knot. These conditions contributed to a smooth and stable approach, allowing the pilot to focus on executing a precise touchdown.
The total landing distance of 672 meters was a mere 25% of the runway length, demonstrating the pilot's exceptional control and precision. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process and had successfully aligned the aircraft with the runway centerline.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, as well as the aircraft's performance capabilities. The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche handled the landing with ease, and the pilot's expertise ensured a safe and successful touchdown.
