The flight began with a departure roll from runway 29 at Milford Sound Airport, with the TBM 930 aircraft taking off in a relatively short distance of 403 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 83 knots, and the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a gentle tailwind of 2 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of Milford Sound, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead the sound and took the aircraft up to an altitude of 11,031 feet above sea level. This climb was achieved in just 6 minutes, covering a distance of 17 nautical miles and an altitude increase of 10,261 feet. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, which lasted for 2 minutes and covered 9 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 4 miles south-east of Glenorchy Airport, where the aircraft started its descent from 10,585 feet above sea level to 3,421 feet above sea level. This descent was completed in just 4 minutes, covering a distance of 12 nautical miles and a decrease in altitude of 7,164 feet. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 05 at Queenstown International Airport, which was located to the west.
The final approach was made at a heading of 100.0 degrees, 2 nautical miles from the runway, and at an altitude of 2,206 feet above ground level. The landing was successful, with a touchdown speed of 70 knots and a touchdown distance of 469 meters, which accounted for 51% of the runway. The touchdown rate was excellent, at -82 feet per minute.
After landing, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, taking just 1 minute to cover a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 42 nautical miles, and the flight used 54 kilograms of fuel. The aircraft's performance was impressive, with a good threshold height, threshold speed, and touchdown speed, as well as an excellent touchdown rate. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned, and the runway rollout alignment was also slightly off-centerline.

The TBM 930 aircraft successfully landed at Queenstown International Airport (NZQN) with a score of 94.2%. The final approach was conducted from the west, heading 100.0° at 2 nautical miles and 2,206 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft touched down on runway 05, which has a length of 1,771 meters.
The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct height as it approached the runway. The threshold speed of 87 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's speed during the landing. The touchdown distance of 469 meters was also good, showing that the pilot was able to bring the aircraft down smoothly and within the desired distance.
The touchdown speed of 70 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -82 feet per minute (fpm) was excellent, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.0 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's alignment during the approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 19°C and a wind speed of 12 knots at 60°. The crosswind component was minimal at 4 knots, while the headwind component was 12 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the landing. The total landing distance of 900 meters was 51% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range.
During the rollout, the aircraft's alignment was slightly misaligned by 11.8 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the pilot's control during the rollout. Overall, the landing was successful, and the pilot demonstrated good control and judgment during the approach and landing phases.
