Departing from Inverness Airport (EGPE), the Black Square Caravan Professional Amphibian N511KG began its takeoff roll on runway 23. The aircraft accelerated down the 1,449-meter runway, utilizing 80% of its available length, before lifting off at a speed of 96 knots. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a gentle breeze of 1 knot from 270 degrees, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it efficiently navigated the circuit, completing the downwind turn in 3 nautical miles and aligning itself for the final approach to runway 05. The pilot expertly managed the aircraft's descent, maintaining a heading of 50 degrees and an altitude of 948 feet above ground level (agl) at a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway threshold. The landing was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 74 knots and a touchdown distance of 372 meters, which was 46% of the available runway length. The touchdown rate was a respectable -145 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.

Following a successful landing, the aircraft rolled out on the 1,814-meter runway, maintaining perfect alignment. The total landing distance was 828 meters, and the pilot reported that no fuel was consumed during the flight, which covered a total distance of 6 nautical miles. The efficient performance of the aircraft was a testament to the pilot's skill and the aircraft's capabilities, particularly in the challenging Scottish weather conditions.
