Next time

Departure

Make small rudder corrections against a point at the far end to hold the centreline.

What happened: During the ground roll you drifted 4.8 m off the runway centreline.

Watch for: Watch runway alignment against the centreline, correcting with small rudder inputs.

See Departure Roll

Each lap slightly wider and higher than the last, because you're unconsciously using the previous lap as your reference instead of the runway and the numbers. Invisible lap to lap, unmistakable across ten. This is the failure that only measurement catches, because your memory of lap three is gone by lap eight.

Flight narrative

The flight began with a departure roll from runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, EGPK. The aircraft, an Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen: Explorer, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 38 knots. The takeoff distance was a mere 36 meters, which is just 1% of the runway's length.

As the aircraft entered the traffic pattern, it made a left-hand pattern entry from runway 12. This maneuver was completed in under 1 nautical mile in just 19 seconds. The pilot then executed a left-hand pattern crosswind turn, again covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 19 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind leg, where it turned at an angle of 49.8 degrees to the runway. This turn covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.

The downwind leg itself was 3 nautical miles long and took 113 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated the base leg turn, which covered a distance of 1 nautical mile and had an angle of 11.4 degrees to the runway. With the aircraft now aligned with the runway, the pilot began the final approach from the north-west, heading 121.0 degrees at an altitude of 220 feet above ground level.

The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 22 knots. The touchdown distance was a respectable 384 meters, which is just 16% of the runway's length. The touchdown rate was also perfect, at -41 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop with perfect runway rollout alignment.

The total landing distance was 443 meters, and the aircraft used a mere 1 kilogram of fuel for the entire flight. The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, which was completed in just 5 minutes. Overall, the flight was a textbook example of a well-executed landing, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and precision throughout the maneuver.

Landing Summary

The Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen, a lightweight, single-engine aircraft, successfully landed at Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) on runway 12. The pilot's final approach was from the north-west, aligning with the runway at a heading of 121.0°. At an altitude of 220 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway, the aircraft was in a stable position for landing.

The landing was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 22 knots. This speed was well within the threshold speed of 44 knots, indicating a controlled descent. The touchdown distance of 384 meters was also satisfactory, with the aircraft coming to rest within a reasonable distance from the runway threshold.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 270°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind component of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The aircraft's touchdown rate of -41 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled touchdown.

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway centerline. This was also reflected in the runway rollout alignment, which was perfect. The total landing distance of 443 meters was only 16% of the runway length, indicating a short and controlled landing. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent flying skills and control of the aircraft.
