Departing from Inverness Airport (EGPE), the Sirius aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 58 kt in a distance of 200 m, which accounted for 11% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20 °C and a gentle headwind of 3 kt from a direction of 227°.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of precision and control. The entry from runway 23 was executed in a distance of less than 1 nm in 23 seconds, followed by a smooth crosswind turn in 26 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was completed in 1 nm, with an angle to the runway of 87.7°. The downwind leg itself covered a distance of 2 nm in 69 seconds, before the aircraft began its base leg, which was completed in less than 1 nm in 48 seconds. The final turn was executed in 31 seconds, setting the aircraft up for a precise final approach to runway 23 from the north-east.

The final approach was characterized by a heading of 229.0° at 0 nm and an altitude of 189 ft above ground level. The landing was executed at a threshold speed that was slightly above the target, but the touchdown speed of 41 kt was well within acceptable limits. The touchdown point was 54 m beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown rate of 17 fpm was perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also spot on, and the runway rollout alignment was maintained throughout the landing distance of 1,015 m, which accounted for 56% of the available runway length.
