This flight was conducted in a Cessna C182 aircraft, starting with an enroute climb from Inverness Airport in Scotland. The aircraft took off from a height of 30 feet above sea level and climbed to 1,010 feet above sea level, a total increase of 980 feet, in just 2 minutes while covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. This rapid ascent demonstrates the aircraft's ability to efficiently gain altitude.
Following the initial climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, where it maintained a steady altitude and speed for 3 minutes while covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. This phase of the flight allowed the pilot to stabilize the aircraft and prepare for the final approach.
The final approach to runway 23 at Inverness Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft heading at 228.0 degrees and at an altitude of 184 feet above ground level. The pilot successfully guided the aircraft onto the runway, with a touchdown speed of 56 knots and a touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute, which is considered excellent.
The landing was deemed good, with a touchdown distance of 300 meters. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than desired, at 73 knots. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 11 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 18 knots from 223 degrees.
The crosswind component was minimal, at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 17 knots. The total landing distance was 514 meters, which is 28% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The total flight distance was 4 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft consumed a total of -6 kilograms of fuel during the flight, indicating a slight decrease in fuel weight. Overall, the flight was conducted efficiently and safely, with the pilot demonstrating excellent control and navigation skills.

The Cessna C182 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a high score of 99.2%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, aligning with the runway 23 threshold. At an altitude of 184 feet above ground level (agl) and 0 nautical miles from the runway, the aircraft was heading 228.0°, indicating a precise approach path.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed on the runway with a good threshold height, which is a critical factor in ensuring a safe and controlled landing. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than desired at 73 knots, which may be attributed to factors such as wind conditions or pilot technique. Despite this, the touchdown distance of 300 meters was considered good, and the touchdown speed of 56 knots was within acceptable limits.
The touchdown rate of -80 feet per minute (fpm) was an excellent achievement, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, which is a testament to the pilot's skill and attention to detail. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 11°C and a wind speed of 18 knots from 223°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 17 knots, which likely contributed to the slightly higher threshold speed.
The total landing distance of 514 meters was 28% of the runway length, which is a relatively short distance considering the aircraft's size and weight. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating a smooth and controlled deceleration after touchdown. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating excellent skills and control throughout the approach and landing phases.
