The flight began with a departure roll from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a Cessna C172 aircraft taking to the skies. The takeoff distance was a mere 47 meters, which accounted for just 3% of the runway's length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 68 knots, and with the local weather conditions being favorable, the pilot was able to make a smooth start to the flight.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting overhead EGPE Inverness Airport. The climb took the aircraft from an altitude of 232 feet above sea level to 364 feet, an increase of 132 feet in just 2 minutes. This impressive climb rate allowed the aircraft to cover less than 1 nautical mile in a short period of time.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it began its final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The approach was made from the north east, with the aircraft heading 229.0 degrees at an altitude of 335 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The pilot's skill and experience were evident in the smooth and controlled approach.
The landing itself was a textbook example of a well-executed maneuver. The aircraft touched down 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, but at a speed of 51 knots, which was considered good. The touchdown rate was also perfect, at -20 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius and a headwind of 3 knots, also contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance was 944 meters, which accounted for 52% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, indicating that the pilot had maintained control of the aircraft throughout the landing process. The total flight distance was a mere 2 nautical miles, and the flight used 24 kilograms of fuel, a testament to the efficiency of the Cessna C172 aircraft.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a score of 96.4%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, aligning with the runway 23 at a heading of 229.0°, at a distance of 1 nautical mile and an altitude of 335 feet above ground level (agl).
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 51 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed of 51 knots was within the acceptable range, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -20 feet per minute (fpm) was also perfect, demonstrating a well-executed landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a gentle headwind of 3 knots at 228°. The crosswind component was negligible, at 0 knots. These conditions likely contributed to the smooth landing.
One area for improvement noted in the report was the threshold speed, which was too high at 74 knots. This suggests that the pilot may have been able to maintain a more optimal approach speed, which could have resulted in a more precise touchdown.
The total landing distance of 944 meters was 52% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to maintain control and direction during the landing roll.
Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down smoothly and coming to a stop in a controlled manner. The minor deviations in touchdown point and threshold speed are areas for improvement, but the overall performance was excellent.
