The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The Baron aircraft required a takeoff distance of 518 meters, which is 19% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 94 knots. At the time of departure, 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.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The entry distance was less than 1 nautical mile and was completed in 36 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also short, requiring a distance of less than 1 nautical mile and taking only 19 seconds to complete. The pattern downwind turn involved a distance of 1 nautical mile and an angle to the runway of 91.2 degrees. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 54 seconds.

The pattern base leg turn required a distance of 1 nautical mile and an angle to the runway of 18.8 degrees. The final approach to runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was made from the south-east, with a heading of 301.0 degrees at an altitude of 224 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold.

The landing on runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport was successful, with a touchdown distance of 465 meters and a touchdown speed of 62 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was excellent at -87 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

The total flight distance was 6 nautical miles, which was completed in 4 minutes. The flight used a total of 3 kilograms of fuel.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, a Baron, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport on runway 30. The final approach was initiated from the south east, with the aircraft heading 301.0° at an altitude of 224 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing was executed with precision, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a distance of 465 meters. This is a relatively short touchdown distance, indicating that the pilot had a good control over the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown speed of 62 knots was also within the acceptable range, suggesting that the pilot had managed to slow down the aircraft effectively.

One area for improvement noted in the report was the threshold speed, which was recorded at 85 knots. This is higher than the desired threshold speed, which may indicate that the pilot could have applied more braking or reverse thrust to slow down the aircraft more quickly. However, this did not seem to have a significant impact on the overall landing, as the touchdown distance and speed were both good.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained a steady course and had not deviated from the centerline of the runway. This is an important aspect of landing, as it helps to ensure that the aircraft remains stable and under control during the touchdown phase.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 269°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more straightforward. Overall, the pilot's performance was excellent, with a touchdown rate of -87 feet per minute (fpm) indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
