This flight was conducted in a DA40-XLS aircraft, which took off from a location near Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland. The enroute climb began from an altitude of 69 feet above sea level (asl) and reached 74 ft asl in less than a minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This indicates a smooth and efficient climb.
During the approach to Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK), the aircraft performed a go-around from a height of 23 feet above ground level (agl) on runway 30. This maneuver was likely executed due to a decision to re-attempt the landing. The final approach to runway 30 was made from the south east, heading 304.0° at an altitude of 223 ft agl and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The landing on runway 30 was successful, with the aircraft touching down 167 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 55 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -64 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, indicating precise control and navigation during the approach. The local weather conditions at the time of the flight were characterized by a temperature of 15°C, with a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The flight was relatively short, covering a total distance of 1 nautical mile and lasting 4 minutes. The aircraft consumed 1 kilogram of fuel during this time, indicating a fuel-efficient operation. Overall, the flight demonstrated a high level of precision and control, with a successful landing and efficient use of resources.
