The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with the Sierra C24R aircraft taking off after a distance of 317 meters, which accounted for 12% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 66 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots from a direction of 356 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 2 knots and a headwind of 1 knot.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern from runway 30, it covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 100 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was also navigated with ease, with the aircraft covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in just 18 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was completed over a distance of 2 nautical miles, with the aircraft making a turn of 45 degrees at an angle of 2.3 degrees to the runway.

The final approach to runway 12 was made from the north-west, with the aircraft heading 113.0 degrees at an altitude of 143.9 meters above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The landing on runway 12 was successful, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 55 knots and a touchdown distance of 146 meters, which accounted for 22% of the runway. The touchdown speed and rate were both considered good, with the aircraft experiencing a touchdown rate of -0.2 meters per second.

However, the runway rollout alignment was not perfectly aligned with the centerline, with the aircraft deviating by 15.9 meters. The total landing distance was 612 meters, and the total flight distance was 5 nautical miles, which was completed in 5 minutes. The flight also consumed 17 kilograms of fuel.

Landing on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport in the Sierra C24R

Landing Score 94.72 %

Landing Summary

The aircraft, Sierra C24R, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, achieving a high score of 94.7%. The final approach was conducted from the north-west, heading 113.0° at 1 nautical mile and 143.9 meters above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated excellent control and precision, as evident from the good threshold height, threshold speed of 67 knots, and touchdown distance of 146 meters.

The landing was executed flawlessly, with a touchdown speed of 55 knots and a perfect touchdown rate of -0.2 meters per second. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained a stable and controlled approach. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots at 356°, resulting in a minimal crosswind and tailwind effect.

However, there was a slight deviation in the runway rollout alignment, with the aircraft being misaligned by 15.9 meters from the centerline. This minor issue did not significantly impact the overall performance of the landing, but it did prevent the pilot from achieving a perfect score.

Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control. The aircraft's performance was impressive, and the landing distance of 612 meters, which accounted for only 22% of the runway length, was well within the acceptable range.
