Next time

Departure

Ease the yoke smoothly to hold a steady one g through the ground roll instead of letting it sag to 0.5 g.

What happened: During the ground roll the g force averaged 0.5 g, well below the smooth steady load expected while tracking the runway.

Watch for: Watch the g meter and hold it steady near one g through the roll.

See Departure Roll

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 44 ft, holding back pressure steadily rather than adjusting pitch piecemeal.

What happened: The flare drifted away from its intended profile rather than tracking it smoothly from 44 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 44 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

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 EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with registration NI22PC, successfully took off with a takeoff distance of 41 meters, which accounted for just 1% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 96 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 227 degrees.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 12, it demonstrated impressive agility, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in just 88 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind was even more impressive, with the aircraft covering the distance in a mere 17 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was executed with precision, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a turn angle of 9.6 degrees.

The final approach to runway 30 was made from the south-east, with the aircraft heading 299.0 degrees at an altitude of 259 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 30 was smooth and controlled, with the touchdown point located 363 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 82 knots was well within the target range, and the touchdown rate of -101 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth and controlled.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were identical to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 3 knots at 227 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. The total landing distance was 1,279 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained excellent control throughout the landing.

In terms of fuel efficiency, the flight used a total of 5 kilograms of fuel to cover a distance of 3 nautical miles, which is a relatively low consumption rate. Overall, the flight demonstrated impressive performance and control, with the pilot executing a series of complex maneuvers with precision and skill.

Landing Summary

The aircraft, a Piper Aerostar 600 with registration NI22PC, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport on runway 30. The pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and control throughout the final approach and landing phases. The aircraft was approaching the runway from the south east, heading 299.0° at an altitude of 259 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway.

Upon reaching the runway, the pilot executed a smooth touchdown, with a speed of 82 knots, which was well within the target range. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -101 feet per minute (fpm), indicating a controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately align the aircraft with the runway.

The threshold height at 58 feet agl was slightly above the target, but this did not seem to affect the overall performance of the landing. The threshold speed was, however, well above the target at 106 knots, which may have been due to the pilot's cautious approach to ensure a safe landing.

The touchdown point was 363 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance, but still within the acceptable range. The total landing distance was 1,279 meters, which is 47% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 227°. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was 1 knot. These conditions did not seem to affect the pilot's performance, and the landing was executed smoothly and safely.

Overall, the pilot demonstrated a high level of skill and control throughout the final approach and landing phases, resulting in a successful landing at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The score of 93.3% reflects the pilot's excellent performance, and the landing was executed in accordance with standard operating procedures.
