The flight began with an enroute climb from Inverness Airport, where the aircraft, a DA50, took off from a height of 33 feet above sea level and climbed to 966 feet in just one minute, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This rapid ascent allowed the aircraft to quickly gain altitude and establish a stable flight path.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, where it maintained a steady altitude and airspeed for three minutes, covering another 2 nautical miles. This phase of the flight allowed the pilot to assess the aircraft's performance and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth and efficient flight.
As the aircraft approached Inverness Airport, it began its final approach to runway 05, descending from an altitude of 860 feet above ground level and heading southwest at a bearing of 33.0 degrees. The pilot carefully guided the aircraft towards the runway, taking into account the local weather conditions, which included a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle tailwind of 3 knots.
However, the pilot decided to initiate a go-around, climbing the aircraft to an altitude of 993 feet above ground level. This decision was likely made in response to a change in the aircraft's performance or a concern about the approach.
The aircraft then successfully landed on runway 05, which had a length of 1,814 meters. The pilot reported that the threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was also satisfactory at 78 knots. The touchdown distance was 275 meters, and the touchdown speed was 62 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was an impressive -92 feet per minute, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The aircraft's performance during the landing was further highlighted by its perfect runway touchdown alignment and rollout alignment. The local weather conditions, including a gentle tailwind of 3 knots, did not appear to have any significant impact on the flight.
In total, the flight covered a distance of 8 nautical miles and used 4 kilograms less fuel than expected, indicating a high level of efficiency. The pilot's skill and experience were evident throughout the flight, as they expertly navigated the aircraft through various phases of flight, from takeoff to landing.

The DA50 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a high score of 97.8%. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 33.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 860 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated excellent control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 05.
The runway at EGPE Inverness Airport has a length of 1,814 meters, providing a sufficient surface for the DA50 to touch down safely. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude when approaching the runway. The threshold speed of 78 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed effectively.
Upon touchdown, the DA50 performed well, with a touchdown distance of 275 meters and a speed of 62 knots. The touchdown rate of -92 feet per minute (fpm) was particularly impressive, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, suggesting that the pilot had maintained precise control of the aircraft throughout the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a wind speed of 3 knots from 226°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind component and a slight tailwind of 3 knots, which did not significantly impact the landing. The total landing distance of 588 meters was only 32% of the runway length, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to stop quickly and efficiently.
Finally, the runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase, ensuring a safe and stable stop at the end of the runway. Overall, the DA50's performance during this landing was exceptional, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
