The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, where the aircraft, a DA42-VI, successfully took off after covering a distance of 38 meters, which is just 1% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 84 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
Following the departure, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which lasted for just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This brief cruise phase took place overhead Monkton, a location in South Ayrshire, Scotland.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, coming in from the north-west at a heading of 148.0 degrees and at an altitude of 124 feet above ground level. The approach was initiated at a distance of 0 nautical miles from the runway.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters. The threshold height was reported to be good, and the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 82 knots. The touchdown point was located 52 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed was recorded at 68 knots, which was a little fast. However, the touchdown rate was perfect at -32 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were identical to those at the time of departure, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 828 meters, which is 30% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was reported to be perfect. Overall, the flight was characterized by a smooth and controlled approach and landing, with the aircraft using a total of 2 nautical miles of distance and consuming -5 kilograms of fuel over the course of the flight, which lasted for 3 minutes.

The DA42-VI aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a score of 91.8%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 148.0° at 0 nm and 124 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft landed on runway 12, which has a length of 2,737 meters.
The pilot demonstrated good control during the approach, with a threshold height that was well within the acceptable range. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 82 kt, indicating a slightly aggressive approach. The touchdown point was 52 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was 68 kt, which was a little fast. Nevertheless, the touchdown rate was perfect at -32 fpm, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot maintained a stable and aligned approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 kt from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component, making the landing conditions relatively straightforward.
The total landing distance was 828 meters, which is 30% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft to a stop quickly and efficiently. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot maintained control and stability during the rollout phase.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the pilot demonstrating good control and precision throughout the approach and touchdown phases. However, there were some minor deviations from the target speeds and touchdown point, which may be areas for improvement in future landings.
