Flight Score
Departure
Ease the back pressure on the yoke after rotation so the pitch change is smoother and g force stays lower.
What happened: During the initial climb the average g force reached 1.3 g, a high value for that phase.
Watch for: G meter: smooth, steady value in the normal climb band
Arrival
Make small rudder corrections against a fixed point at the far end of the runway to hold the centreline.
What happened: You drifted off the centreline on the approach.
Watch for: Runway centreline: tracked all the way to the threshold.
See Arrival Approach
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: seven checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: centreline 4.2° off, against a 1° limit.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,731 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 368 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Departing from Glasgow Prestwick Airport (EGPK), the Phenom 300E began its journey with a swift taxiing phase, covering less than 1 nautical mile in under a minute. As the aircraft reached the runway threshold, it initiated a departure roll on runway 30, utilizing 19% of the 2,737-meter runway to achieve liftoff at a speed of 126 knots. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 16°C and a negligible headwind, contributed to a smooth takeoff.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute phase, it began a climb from 980 feet above sea level to 3,515 feet, a vertical increase of 2,535 feet, in under a minute and covering approximately 1 nautical mile. The climb was initiated overhead Monkton, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Later, the aircraft commenced a descent from 3,922 feet to 455 feet, a decrease of 3,467 feet, over a period of 4 minutes and covering 8 nautical miles. This descent phase was started 1 mile southeast of Troon, South Ayrshire, Scotland.
Upon approaching runway 12 at EGPK, the Phenom 300E executed a final approach from the northwest, maintaining a heading of 117.0° at 1 nautical mile and 400 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed smoothly, with a threshold speed of 94 knots and a touchdown speed of 83 knots, resulting in a touchdown distance of 376 meters. The touchdown rate was -49 feet per minute, indicating a perfect touchdown. Although the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 meters from the centerline, the runway rollout alignment was very good. The total landing distance was 766 meters, accounting for 28% of the runway length. The flight utilized 40 kilograms of fuel, covering a total distance of 11 nautical miles in 6 minutes.
The aircraft touched down smoothly on runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, with a threshold height that was well within acceptable limits. The approach quality was excellent, with a threshold speed of 94 kt that was precisely managed, allowing for a controlled descent. The touchdown distance of 376 m was also good, indicating a well-executed flare and touchdown.
The touchdown itself was characterized by a speed of 83 kt, which was within the desired range, and a touchdown rate of -49 fpm, which was perfect. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.7 m from the centreline, which may require some adjustment in the approach and landing technique. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle tailwind of 2 kt, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing.
The aircraft's rollout was well-managed, with a very good alignment on the runway centreline. The total landing distance of 766 m, which accounted for 28% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. Overall, the landing was a success, with a score of 98.6% reflecting the high level of proficiency demonstrated by the pilot.
