This flight was conducted in an American Champion Scout, a type of light aircraft known as the Lions 26 Analog. The aircraft took off from a location near Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland, and began its enroute climb. During this phase, the aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 64 feet above sea level to a height of 193 feet, representing an increase of 129 feet over a period of 2 minutes. The climb also covered a distance of 1 nautical mile.
As the aircraft approached Glasgow Prestwick Airport, it began its final approach to runway 12, which is located to the west of the airport. The aircraft was heading in a direction of 108.0 degrees at an altitude of 133 feet above ground level, and was 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The approach was made from the west, which is the direction from which the aircraft was approaching the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height was reported to be good, and the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 40 knots. The touchdown distance was also good, measuring 435 meters, and the touchdown speed was 34 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -114 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees. The crosswind and tailwind components were both 1 knot, indicating that the wind was not a significant factor in the landing. The total landing distance was 532 meters, which represented 19% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also very good.
In terms of the overall flight, the aircraft traveled a total distance of 2 nautical miles, which was covered in 3 minutes. Notably, the aircraft used no fuel during the flight, indicating that it was operating efficiently.

The American Champion Scout, registration LIONS 26 ANALOG, successfully landed at Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK) on runway 12. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 108.0° at an altitude of 133 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.
The pilot executed a smooth final approach, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed that was slightly below the target of 40 knots. The touchdown distance was also satisfactory, measuring 435 meters, and the touchdown speed of 34 knots was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was particularly impressive, with a smooth descent rate of -114 feet per minute (fpm).
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 1 knot from 269°. This resulted in a minimal crosswind and tailwind, making the landing even more challenging but ultimately successful. The pilot's skill and experience were evident in the very good runway touchdown alignment, which ensured a safe and controlled landing.
The total landing distance of 532 meters was only 19% of the runway length, indicating a high degree of precision and control during the landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and stability during the critical phase of landing. Overall, the landing was a credit to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's performance, and it was executed with a high degree of precision and control.
