What went well

Touched down at -155 fpm — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 52 ft and 115 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 2.10 m off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 87 %, −0.27 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown distance was 574 m at 87 %, −0.20 points
Departure Climb 2 — scored 98.83 %, −0.08 points

Next time

Arrival

Fly the flare as one continuous check of the sink rate from 29 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 29 ft down to touchdown.

Watch for: Watch radio altitude and VSI through the flare, aiming to arrest the sink smoothly from 29 ft to touchdown.

See Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

Flight narrative

Departing from Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK), the aircraft began its taxiing process from the parking area to the runway, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in under 1 minute. Upon reaching runway 30, the departure roll commenced, with the aircraft taking off after a distance of 1,127 meters, which accounted for 41% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 116 knots, and the aircraft continued to climb under the influence of a 2-knot headwind and a negligible crosswind.

As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began to ascend from an altitude of 1,020 feet above sea level to 1,556 feet above sea level, a vertical increase of 536 feet, over a distance of 3 nautical miles in 1 minute. Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, maintaining an altitude of 1,556 feet above sea level for 2 minutes while covering 4 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase commenced overhead Prestwick, with the aircraft descending from 1,455 feet above sea level to 549 feet above sea level, a vertical decrease of 906 feet, over a distance of 4 nautical miles in 2 minutes.

Upon reaching the final approach phase, the aircraft began its descent from an altitude of 491 feet above ground level, heading towards runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport from the southeast. The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 93 knots, with a touchdown rate of -155 feet per minute, and a touchdown point located 147 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The total flight distance was 13 nautical miles, and the aircraft utilized 47 kilograms of fuel during the 6-minute flight.
