The flight began with a departure roll from runway 30 at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, EGPK. The aircraft, an American Champion Scout, successfully took off with a liftoff speed of 58 kt, covering a takeoff distance of 745 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from a direction of 270 °, resulting in a negligible headwind or crosswind.
As the aircraft climbed to a higher altitude, it began its enroute climb, starting overhead Monkton in South Ayrshire, Scotland. The aircraft ascended from an initial altitude of 96 ft above sea level to 125 ft, an increase of 29 ft, in less than 1 minute and covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. This rapid climb demonstrated the aircraft's ability to efficiently gain altitude.
Upon approaching the destination airport, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, coming in from the west at a heading of 110.0 ° and an altitude of 73 ft above ground level. The aircraft maintained a steady approach, eventually landing on the runway with a touchdown speed of 33 kt, which was considered good. The touchdown point was located 157 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate was an excellent -80 ft per minute.
The landing distance of 748 meters was also 27% of the runway length, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway rollout alignment was very good, with the aircraft maintaining a stable and aligned path after touchdown. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt from a direction of 270 °, resulting in a negligible tailwind or crosswind.
The total flight distance was 2 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 2 minutes. The aircraft consumed a total of -3 kg of fuel during the flight, indicating a slight decrease in fuel weight. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and controlled operations, with the aircraft performing well in various phases of flight.

The American Champion Scout, registration LIONS 26 ANALOG, successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport on runway 12. The aircraft approached the runway from the west, heading 110.0°, at an altitude of 73 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The pilot executed a good final approach, maintaining a steady heading and altitude until touchdown.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 157 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is slightly beyond the expected threshold. However, the touchdown speed of 33 knots was considered good, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute (fpm) was also excellent, demonstrating a high degree of precision and control.
Despite a slightly misaligned runway touchdown position, which was 5.1 meters off-centerline, the pilot managed to maintain a very good runway rollout alignment. This suggests that the pilot was able to quickly adjust to the slight deviation and maintain control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind and tailwind components were negligible, at 1 knot each, which likely contributed to the smooth and controlled landing.
Overall, the landing was considered good, with a score of 79.2%. While there were some minor deviations from the expected touchdown zone and runway alignment, the pilot demonstrated a high degree of skill and control throughout the landing phase.
