I landed a C152 at EGLK at approx. 13.45 (local), and did not experience any significant turbulence on either Downwind, Base or Final, and was advised by the Tower that the wind was "light and variable" on approach. However, I did have an extremely long "Float", and whereas I normally exit Runway 25 at the first turn-off, on this occasion I had to go onto the second. Could the "variable" bit have resulted in there being a tail-wind component as I was neither high nor fast?


Flying conditions were near perfect in the vicinity, with no problem maintaining heights.
