The flight began with a departure roll from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the aircraft, a Carenado B55, successfully took off with a takeoff distance of 115 meters, which accounted for 6% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 110 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it demonstrated impressive agility, completing the entry turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 23 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was even quicker, taking 17 seconds to complete the maneuver. The pattern downwind turn was executed at an angle of 57.9 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The downwind leg itself was 3 nautical miles long and took 94 seconds to complete.

The base leg turn was another precise maneuver, with the aircraft turning at an angle of 23.0 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The base leg itself was short, taking less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds to complete. The final turn was equally swift, taking 16 seconds to complete the maneuver.

The final approach to runway 05 was made from the southwest, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 38.0 degrees at an altitude of 578 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing was smooth, with the touchdown point being 128 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 78 knots, and the touchdown rate was a smooth -137 feet per minute (fpm).

The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the runway rollout alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 1,275 meters, which accounted for 70% of the runway. The local weather conditions remained the same, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot at 270 degrees.

The flight was a success, with the aircraft using 15 kilograms of fuel to cover a total distance of 11 nautical miles in 8 minutes. The flight demonstrated the aircraft's agility, precision, and smooth landing capabilities, making it a testament to the pilot's skill and experience.

Landing Summary

The Carenado B55 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in aviation skills. The final approach to runway 05 was initiated from the south west, with a heading of 38.0° at 2 nautical miles and 578 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, allowing the aircraft to touch down smoothly on the runway.

The touchdown point was 128 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation from the ideal landing spot. However, the touchdown speed of 78 knots was well within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -137 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown alignment was also very good, 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 15°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component, making the landing even more challenging and impressive. The total landing distance of 1,275 meters was 70% of the runway length, which is a respectable achievement considering the aircraft's size and weight.

The runway rollout alignment was perfect, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the post-landing phase, ensuring a safe and stable taxiing process. Overall, this landing demonstrates a high level of skill and expertise in aviation, with a score of 98.4% reflecting the pilot's exceptional performance.
