The flight began with a departure roll from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the Cessna C172 aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 61 meters, which accounted for just 3% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 70 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 3 knots blowing from 225 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind but a slight tailwind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb overhead Ardersier, a location in the Highland region of Scotland. The climb started from an altitude of 709 feet above sea level and reached 443 feet above sea level, an increase of 267 feet, in just 1 minute. This impressive climb rate covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.
The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was initiated from the north-east, with the aircraft heading 251.0 degrees at an altitude of 414 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 3 knots blowing from 225 degrees.
The landing on runway 23 was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly higher than desired at 84 knots. However, the touchdown point was 99 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 59 knots was a little fast. Fortunately, the touchdown rate was excellent at -69 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The flight was completed with a total distance of 4 nautical miles, which was covered in 3 minutes, and a fuel consumption of -2 kilograms. This indicates that the aircraft actually gained weight during the flight, possibly due to the consumption of fuel during the climb and cruise phases.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 93.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, aligning with a heading of 251.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 414 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on runway 23, which has a length of 1,814 meters. The threshold height was reported as good, indicating that the pilot maintained a suitable altitude during the approach. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 84 knots, suggesting that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more efficient approach speed.
The touchdown point was located 99 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which may indicate that the pilot could have made a more precise touchdown. The touchdown speed of 59 knots was slightly faster than ideal, but the touchdown rate of -69 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain a stable and aligned approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle headwind of 3 knots from 225°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots, which further contributed to the smooth landing.
Overall, the landing was successful, but there is room for improvement in terms of approach speed and touchdown precision. The pilot's ability to maintain a stable and controlled descent, however, was evident in the excellent touchdown rate and perfect runway alignment.
