Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EGPE Inverness Airport took less than a minute, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then began its departure roll on runway 23, utilizing 593 meters, or 33% of the runway's length, to achieve liftoff at a speed of 84 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern from runway 23, it maintained a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 24 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in 20 seconds, with the aircraft maintaining a steady heading. The pattern downwind turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway, covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nautical miles in 48 seconds, before the aircraft began its base leg turn, which involved a 45-degree angle to the runway and a distance of 1 nautical mile. The base leg was completed in 21 seconds, followed by a final turn that covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds.

The aircraft then commenced its final approach to runway 23 from the north-east, maintaining a heading of 229.0° at an altitude of 137 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with good threshold height, threshold speed, and touchdown distance, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 72 knots and a distance of 215 meters, or 32% of the runway's length. The touchdown rate was fair at -208 feet per minute, but the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 586 meters, and the runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft used a total of 3 kilograms of fuel for the flight, which covered a distance of 6 nautical miles.
