The flight departed from a location in the Highland region of Scotland, with the initial climb phase commencing overhead Inverness Airport (EGPE). The aircraft, a DA50, rapidly ascended from an initial altitude of 31 feet above sea level to 977 feet, a vertical gain of 946 feet, within a 2-minute period. This climb phase covered a distance of approximately 3 nautical miles, demonstrating the aircraft's ability to efficiently gain altitude.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its enroute descent phase, initiated overhead Croy in the Highland region. The descent from 978 feet above sea level to 114 feet above sea level, a decrease of 864 feet, was also completed within a 2-minute timeframe, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles. Following the descent, the aircraft commenced its final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, approaching from the north-east with a heading of 232.0°. The aircraft maintained a good threshold height, with the threshold speed exceeding the target value at 87 knots.
The landing on runway 23 was executed with good touchdown distance, at 300 meters, and a touchdown speed of 66 knots, which was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate was smooth, at -135 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. Local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 270°, contributed to a relatively straightforward landing. The total landing distance was 715 meters, accounting for 39% of the runway length. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned, deviating by 9.0 meters from the centreline. The flight's total distance was 6 nautical miles, covering a distance of 3 nautical miles in 3 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 2 kilograms.

The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 232.0° at 0 nm and 87 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target, registering at 87 kt.
As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 300 m, and the touchdown speed of 66 kt was well within the acceptable range. The touchdown rate was smooth, with a rate of -135 fpm. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing phase. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a wind speed of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a relatively calm and stable environment for the landing.
The total landing distance of 715 m, which accounted for 39% of the runway length, was within acceptable limits. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.0 m from the centreline, which was the only notable deviation from an otherwise excellent landing. Overall, the landing was scored at 97.3%, reflecting the high level of proficiency and control demonstrated by the pilot during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases.
