The American Champion Scout, registration LIONS 26 ANALOG, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport on runway 30. The aircraft approached the runway from the south east, heading 325.0° at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 851 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot executed a precise final approach, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 1 kt from the west.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 50 kt, registering at 51 kt. However, the touchdown distance of 298 meters was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. The touchdown speed of 35 kt was also within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -66 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, demonstrating a high degree of control and precision.
The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centreline by 5.1 meters, but this did not significantly impact the overall landing performance. The total landing distance of 496 meters was only 18% of the runway length, indicating a short and efficient landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and stability throughout the landing process.
Overall, the landing was considered successful, with a score of 92.4%. The pilot's skills and experience were evident in the precise execution of the final approach and the controlled touchdown. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a gentle wind and a moderate temperature, which likely contributed to the smooth and efficient landing.
