The flight was conducted in an Aeroprakt A-32 Vixxen, a lightweight aircraft designed for recreational flying. The departure from Newcastle Airport (EGNT) began with a roll on runway 25, where the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 48 knots. The takeoff distance was a mere 38 meters, which is just 2% of the runway's length.

As the aircraft entered the local traffic pattern, it followed a left-hand pattern entry from runway 25. The turn was completed in under 1 nautical mile in just 21 seconds, demonstrating the aircraft's agility and responsiveness. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind turn was slightly longer, taking 30 seconds to complete.

The flight then proceeded to the downwind leg, where the aircraft turned at an angle of 73.7 degrees to the runway. This turn covered a distance of 1 nautical mile and set the stage for the downwind leg itself, which lasted for 77 seconds and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.

As the aircraft approached the base leg, it turned at an angle of 47.6 degrees to the runway, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. The base leg itself was short, lasting just 31 seconds and covering less than 1 nautical mile.

The final turn, which brought the aircraft onto the final approach, was completed in under 1 nautical mile in 32 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 25, flying at a heading of 246.0 degrees and an altitude of 193 feet above ground level (agl).

The landing itself was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 22 knots and a distance of 280 meters. The touchdown rate was perfect at -48 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The aircraft's performance was further enhanced by the favorable local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 2 knots.

In terms of fuel efficiency, the flight was a success, with the aircraft using a mere 0 kilograms of fuel over the course of the 7-nautical-mile flight, which took a total of 7 minutes to complete.
