The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the Cessna 208B aircraft taking off in a smooth manner. The takeoff distance was 122 meters, which accounted for only 4% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 98 knots, indicating a stable and controlled ascent.
As the aircraft entered the local airspace, the pilot encountered a relatively calm environment, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the west. The crosswind and headwind components were both 1 knot, posing no significant challenge to the pilot's control.
The aircraft then entered a left-hand pattern, with the pilot executing a smooth and efficient turn. The distance covered during the pattern entry was less than 1 nautical mile in 60 seconds, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in under 25 seconds, further showcasing the pilot's expertise.
As the aircraft progressed through the pattern, it entered the downwind leg, which was completed in a mere 9 seconds. This rapid transition was a testament to the pilot's familiarity with the aircraft and the airport's layout.
The final approach to runway 12 was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 121.0 degrees and an altitude of 185 feet above ground level. The pilot maintained a steady and controlled descent, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway.
Upon landing, the pilot achieved a good threshold height and a slightly below-target threshold speed of 60 knots. The touchdown distance was an impressive 98 meters, and the touchdown speed was a respectable 54 knots. The touchdown rate was an excellent -58 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the pilot executed a perfect runway rollout alignment. The total landing distance was 351 meters, which accounted for only 13% of the runway length. The pilot's skill and control were evident throughout the landing, with the aircraft coming to a stop in a smooth and controlled manner.
The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 3 minutes. The aircraft consumed a total of 25 kilograms of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was a testament to the pilot's expertise and the aircraft's performance, with a smooth and controlled departure, pattern, and landing.

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 1 nautical mile and 185 feet above ground level (agl). This indicates a precise and controlled descent, with the pilot maintaining a steady heading and altitude.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 54 knots, which is slightly below the target threshold speed of 60 knots. However, this is not a significant deviation, and the touchdown speed was still within a safe range. The touchdown distance of 98 meters was also good, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -58 feet per minute (fpm). This suggests that the pilot had carefully managed the aircraft's descent, ensuring a smooth and controlled touchdown. Additionally, the runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained the aircraft's alignment with the runway throughout the landing process.
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 at 229°. This resulted in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The total landing distance of 351 meters was only 13% of the runway length, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
Finally, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase of the landing. Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of proficiency and skill on the part of the pilot, with a score of 98.0% indicating an extremely high level of performance.
