MY FS FLIGHTS
The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza took off with a takeoff distance of 1,105 meters, which accounted for 61% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 82 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb 1 mile west of Croy, a small town in the Highland region of Scotland. The climb took place from an initial altitude of 1,022 feet above sea level to a maximum altitude of 2,529 feet, representing an increase of 1,507 feet over a distance of 7 nautical miles in just 3 minutes. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to quickly gain altitude and establish itself in the surrounding airspace.
After reaching its cruising altitude, the aircraft began its enroute descent 1 mile south east of Rosemarkie, another town in the Highland region. The descent took place from an altitude of 2,565 feet to a final altitude of 770 feet, representing a decrease of 1,795 feet over a distance of 4 nautical miles in just 2 minutes. This rapid descent allowed the aircraft to efficiently transition from its cruising altitude to a lower altitude, preparing it for its final approach to the airport.
The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 235.0 degrees and an altitude of 728 feet above ground level. The local weather conditions at the time of the approach were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.
The landing itself was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 60 knots and a touchdown distance of 380 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect at -38 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was spot on. The total landing distance was 710 meters, which accounted for 39% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot had maintained excellent control of the aircraft throughout the landing process.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 16 nautical miles and took approximately 9 minutes to complete, using a total of 3 kilograms of fuel. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and controlled operations, with the pilot demonstrating excellent flying skills and a deep understanding of the aircraft's performance characteristics.

The Beechcraft A36 Bonanza successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The aircraft approached the runway from the north east, heading 235.0° at 2 nautical miles and 728 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, as evidenced by the good threshold height and perfect runway touchdown alignment.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's performance was impressive. The threshold speed was slightly below the target at 66 knots, but this did not affect the overall outcome. The touchdown distance of 380 meters was good, and the touchdown speed of 60 knots was also within acceptable limits. The most notable aspect of the landing was the perfect touchdown rate of -38 feet per minute (fpm), which indicates a smooth and controlled descent.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, making the landing even more challenging and impressive. The total landing distance of 710 meters was 39% of the runway length, which is a respectable figure considering the aircraft's size and weight.
The runway rollout alignment was also very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of skill and experience on the part of the pilot, and the Beechcraft A36 Bonanza performed admirably in the challenging conditions.
