The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The Honda HA420 aircraft required a takeoff distance of 1,493 meters, which was 82% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 136 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 17 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand pattern, it did so from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The distance covered during this maneuver was less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The left-hand pattern crosswind was also executed from runway 23, with a distance of less than 1 nautical mile covered in 12 seconds. The subsequent pattern downwind turn involved a distance of 2 nautical miles, with an angle to the runway of 67.9 degrees. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 57 seconds.

The pattern base leg turn was executed with a distance of 2 nautical miles, and an angle to the runway of 37.3 degrees. The base leg itself covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The final turn was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 25 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport from the north-east, with a heading of 229.0 degrees at 1 nautical mile and 294 feet above ground level.

The landing on runway 23 was executed with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target at 86 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 377 meters, and the touchdown speed was also good at 74 knots. The touchdown rate was good at -171 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 220 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and a headwind of 3 knots.

The total landing distance was 1,078 meters, which was 59% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 5 minutes. The aircraft used a total of -220 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
