The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the Wilga 80 aircraft taking off after a distance of 213 meters, which accounted for 8% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 86 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions 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 headwind.
Following the departure, the aircraft entered a level cruise, which started approximately 1 mile west of Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland. This phase of the flight lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The cruise phase was a brief but essential part of the flight, allowing the aircraft to reach a stable altitude before beginning its descent.
The final approach to runway 12 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport was initiated from a heading of 122.0 degrees, approximately 1 nautical mile from the runway and at an altitude of 295 feet above ground level. The approach was made from the north-west, with the aircraft descending towards the runway.
Upon landing, the Wilga 80 touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, but the threshold speed was found to be too high at 61 knots. The touchdown distance was satisfactory at 371 meters, but the touchdown speed of 55 knots was considered fast. The touchdown rate, however, was excellent at -74 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The landing was not without some issues, as the runway touchdown position was found to be misaligned by 8.3 meters from the centerline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were identical to those at 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 tailwind.
In conclusion, the flight was a relatively short one, covering a total distance of 1 nautical mile and lasting 3 minutes. The aircraft used 2 kilograms of fuel during this time, indicating a relatively efficient flight.

The Wilga 80 aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a score of 98.6%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 122.0° at 1 nautical mile and 295 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft successfully touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters.
The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. However, the threshold speed was too high at 61 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to reduce the speed further before touchdown. The touchdown distance of 371 meters was considered good, indicating that the aircraft was able to land smoothly and maintain control.
Despite the good touchdown distance, the touchdown speed of 55 knots was reported as fast. This may indicate that the pilot could have reduced the speed further before touchdown to achieve a more optimal landing. The touchdown rate of -74 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating that the aircraft was able to touch down smoothly and maintain control.
However, the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.3 meters from the centreline, which may indicate that the pilot could have made adjustments to the approach to achieve a more precise landing. The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were reported as follows: temperature 15°C, wind 1 knot at 270°, crosswind 1 knot, and tailwind 1 knot. These conditions were relatively calm, which may have contributed to the successful landing.
