The flight began with a short taxiing period from the parking to the runway, taking approximately 1 minute and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a PC-12, then departed from runway 07 at Huahine-Fare Airport, with a takeoff distance of 559 meters, which accounted for 37% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 95 knots, and the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 29°C, a wind speed of 8 knots at 79°, with no crosswind but a headwind of 8 knots.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, which started overhead Huahine-Fare Airport. The climb took 6 minutes to reach an altitude of 12,428 feet above sea level, an increase of 11,983 feet from the initial altitude of 445 feet. During this period, the aircraft covered a distance of 16 nautical miles. The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which began 7 miles east of Uturoa and lasted for 25 minutes, covering a distance of 415 nautical miles.
The enroute descent started 19 miles south of Mauke Airport, where the aircraft descended from 12,420 feet to 1,283 feet above sea level, a decrease of 11,137 feet in 9 minutes, covering a distance of 135 nautical miles. The final approach to runway 26 at Rarotonga International Airport was made from the east, with a heading of 270.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,257 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 26 was successful, with a touchdown point 145 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was slightly above the target at 90 knots, but the touchdown rate was smooth at -120 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 25°C, a wind speed of 1 knot at 140°, with a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 1 knot.
The total landing distance was 987 meters, which accounted for 47% of the runway. The taxiing period from the runway to the parking took approximately 1 minute and covered less than 1 nautical mile.

The PC-12 aircraft successfully landed at Rarotonga International Airport, achieving a high score of 98.7%. The final approach to runway 26 was conducted from the east, heading 270.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,257 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a good threshold height, indicating a well-executed descent.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's threshold speed was slightly above the target speed of 90 knots, which may have contributed to a slightly faster touchdown speed of 77 knots. However, the touchdown rate was smooth at -120 feet per minute (fpm), suggesting a controlled and stable descent. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was properly aligned with the runway centerline.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 25°C and a light wind of 1 knot from 140°. The crosswind and tailwind components were both minimal at 1 knot, which likely contributed to the smooth touchdown and rollout. The total landing distance of 987 meters was 47% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance.
The rollout alignment was also perfect, suggesting that the aircraft's brakes were applied smoothly and effectively, allowing the aircraft to come to a stop without any deviation from the centerline.
