Flight narrative

Departing from Inverness Airport (EGPE), the Sting S4 aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 83 kt in 799 meters, which accounted for 44% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 °C and a negligible wind of 1 kt at 270°, resulting in a negligible headwind and crosswind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated efficient maneuverability, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 18 seconds. The subsequent crosswind leg was also executed smoothly, taking 20 seconds to complete. The pilot then initiated a downwind turn, maintaining a 45-degree angle to the runway and covering a distance of 1 nm. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nm, with the aircraft taking 50 seconds to complete the required distance. Following the base leg turn, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 23, aligning with the runway at a heading of 229.0° and an altitude of 152 ft above ground level.

The Sting S4 landed safely on runway 23, with a threshold height that met the required standards. However, the threshold speed was slightly higher than expected, reaching 68 kt. The total flight distance of 6 nm was completed in 5 minutes, with no fuel consumption reported. The aircraft's performance during the flight was satisfactory, with the pilot demonstrating proficiency in navigating the traffic pattern and executing a smooth landing.

Landing Summary

The aircraft touched down on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, with a good threshold height of 152 ft above ground level. However, the threshold speed was noted to be excessively high at 68 kt, which may have contributed to a slightly longer than ideal touchdown roll. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a heading of 229.0° from the north east at 0 nm from the threshold.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, it exhibited a stable and controlled touchdown, with the centreline alignment maintained throughout the rollout phase. The aircraft's deceleration was satisfactory, with a smooth transition from the touchdown to the rollout phase. The rollout distance was within acceptable limits, with the aircraft coming to a stop within the designated runway length of 1,814 m.

The overall performance of the aircraft was satisfactory, with a score of 89.5% awarded for the landing. While the threshold speed was a notable deviation from the ideal, the aircraft's handling and control during the approach and touchdown phases were commendable. The centreline alignment and deceleration characteristics were also satisfactory, contributing to a smooth and controlled rollout.
