Flight narrative

The flight began with a taxiing period from the parking to the runway, which took 6 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Cessna Longitude, then departed from runway 20 at VNKT Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, Nepal. The takeoff distance was 723 meters, which is 25% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 127 knots.

As the aircraft took off, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 19°C and wind speeds of 5 knots at 219°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 5 knots. After departing from Kathmandu, the aircraft began its enroute climb, which started overhead the airport and took the aircraft up to an altitude of 39,372 feet above sea level. This climb covered a distance of 73 nautical miles and took 12 minutes.

The enroute climb was followed by a level cruise, which started 3 miles east of VNKL Kangel Danda Airport in Namche Bazar, Nepal. This cruise lasted for 9 minutes and covered a distance of 84 nautical miles. After the cruise, the aircraft began its enroute descent, which started 6 miles south of Mirik in West Bengal, India. The descent took the aircraft down from an altitude of 39,443 feet to 7,948 feet above sea level, covering a distance of 78 nautical miles in 18 minutes.

The final approach to runway 15 at VQPR Paro International Airport in Bhutan was made from the north, with a heading of 187.0° at 1 nautical mile and 583 feet above ground level.
