Departing from Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport, runway 28, the Vision Jet began its takeoff roll, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 94 kt in a distance of 687 m, which covered 44% of the available runway. The local weather conditions at the time were characterized by a temperature of 23 °C and a gentle wind of 5 kt from 350°, resulting in a negligible crosswind component.
As the aircraft climbed out of Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport, it transitioned into a series of enroute climbs, each separated by brief periods of level cruise. The first enroute climb, initiated overhead Sevierville, saw the aircraft ascend from 1,947 ft to 3,354 ft in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 5 nm. This was followed by a series of similar climbs, with the final one, initiated 1 mile north west of Pigeon Forge, resulting in a significant increase in altitude, from 2,991 ft to 5,679 ft, in a mere 2 minutes. The aircraft then began its descent, starting 3 miles south east of Kenner Farm Airport, Seymour, and landing on runway 23L at McGhee Tyson Airport, with a total flight distance of 42 nm.
The final approach to runway 23L was initiated from the north east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 221.0° at 4 nm and 1,476 ft above ground level. However, the touchdown speed of 97 kt was slightly higher than the threshold speed, and the touchdown point was 71 m beyond the touchdown zone. The runway touchdown position was also slightly misaligned, deviating by 4.9 m from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 23 °C and a wind of 7 kt from 40°, resulting in a tailwind component. The aircraft used a total of 53 kg of fuel during the flight, which lasted 13 minutes.

The final approach to runway 23L at KTYS McGhee Tyson Airport was initiated from the north east, heading 221.0° at 4 nm and 1,476 ft above ground level. The aircraft maintained a stable and controlled descent throughout the approach, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the recommended value at 107 kt, indicating a need for adjustment in the approach configuration.
The aircraft touched down 71 m beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 97 kt, which was faster than the recommended value. Despite this, the touchdown rate was smooth at -146 fpm, indicating a well-controlled descent. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.9 m from the centreline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach path. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 23 °C and a wind of 7 kt at 40°, contributed to a crosswind of 1 kt and a tailwind of 7 kt.
Overall, the landing performance was satisfactory, with a score of 93.7%. The approach quality was good, but the threshold speed and touchdown speed were slightly above the recommended values. The rollout was likely smooth, given the smooth touchdown rate. However, the slight misalignment of the runway touchdown position may require attention to ensure accurate centreline alignment.
