The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, EGPK. The aircraft, a Cessna 208B, accelerated down the runway, covering a distance of 43 meters, which accounted for just 2% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 98 knots, marking the start of the flight.
As the aircraft entered the local airspace, it encountered a relatively calm environment, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component, making the flight conditions ideal for the pilot.
The aircraft then entered a left-hand pattern, beginning its descent towards runway 12. The entry into the pattern was smooth, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 66 seconds. As the aircraft continued its descent, it encountered a slight crosswind component, but the pilot expertly navigated the aircraft, covering the distance in just 25 seconds.
The downwind leg of the pattern was brief, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 10 seconds. From there, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 12, descending from a height of 178 feet above ground level (agl) at a heading of 121.0 degrees.
The landing was executed flawlessly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 55 knots. The touchdown distance was good, covering a distance of 98 meters, and the touchdown rate was excellent, with a rate of -75 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had expertly controlled the aircraft's descent.
Following the landing, the aircraft rolled out on the runway, maintaining perfect alignment. The total landing distance was 351 meters, which accounted for just 13% of the runway's length. The pilot's skill and expertise were evident throughout the flight, as the aircraft used just -11 kilograms of fuel to cover a total distance of 3 nautical miles.

The Cessna 208B aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its approach and landing technique. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the north-west, heading 121.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 178 feet above ground level (agl).
The pilot's final approach to runway 12 was executed with precision, resulting in a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 60 knots, indicating a minor deviation from the ideal approach speed. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 98 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 55 knots was also within acceptable limits.
One of the standout aspects of this landing was the excellent touchdown rate of -75 feet per minute (fpm), which is a testament to the pilot's skill in controlling the aircraft's descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained a stable and consistent approach path.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component, making the landing even more challenging and impressive.
The total landing distance of 351 meters was only 13% of the runway length, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed and descent rate to achieve a short and smooth landing. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience, and it is clear that they have a high level of proficiency in operating the Cessna 208B aircraft. The 98.5% score is a reflection of the pilot's exceptional performance, and it is a credit to their training and experience.
