The flight in question involved a Vision Jet aircraft that performed a go-around from runway 12 at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, touching down at a height of 4 feet above ground level (agl). The final approach to the runway was initiated from the north-west, with the aircraft heading at 121.0 degrees and at an altitude of 1,277 feet agl, approximately 4 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 at 60 feet agl was slightly above the target, indicating a slight deviation from the ideal landing height. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 98 knots, which may have contributed to the slightly elevated threshold height.
The touchdown point was located 294 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively long distance. Nevertheless, the touchdown speed of 66 knots was good, and the touchdown rate of -43 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, suggesting that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from 220 degrees. The crosswind component was 3 knots, while the headwind component was negligible at 0 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which may have contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance was 1,478 meters, which accounts for 54% of the runway length. This is a relatively long landing distance, but the runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway during the rollout phase. The total flight distance was 9 nautical miles, and the flight used a total of -52 kilograms of fuel.

The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport, but with some areas for improvement. The final approach to runway 12 from the north-west was initiated at a height of 1,277 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 4 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft was heading 121.0 degrees at the time of the approach.
The landing was completed with a touchdown speed of 92 knots, which was excessively fast. However, the touchdown rate of -7 feet per minute (fpm) was perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 3.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to the pilot's judgment or the aircraft's performance.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component. The runway length at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport is 2,737 meters, and the threshold height at 60 feet agl was slightly above the target.
The second landing attempt was more successful, with a touchdown speed of 66 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate of -43 fpm was again perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the touchdown point was 294 meters beyond the touchdown zone.
The total landing distance was 1,478 meters, which accounted for 54% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, the Vision Jet aircraft demonstrated good performance during the landing attempts at EGPK Glasgow Prestwick Airport.
