The flight began with a departure roll from runway 21 at EGEN North Ronaldsay Airport, a small airport located on the North Ronaldsay island in the Orkney Islands, Scotland. The Cessna C172 aircraft accelerated down the 215-meter runway, covering 66% of its length, before lifting off at a speed of 59 knots. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a gentle headwind of 8 knots from a direction of 199 degrees.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began its enroute climb, starting 1 mile south of the airport and rising from an altitude of 767 feet above sea level to 2,466 feet above sea level. This climb of 1,698 feet was achieved in just 2 minutes, covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then leveled off and entered a cruise phase, flying for 80 minutes and covering a distance of 150 nautical miles.
The enroute descent phase began 4 miles north-east of the UK10 Plockton Plockton Airstrip in the Highland region of Scotland. The aircraft descended from an altitude of 2,572 feet above sea level to 1,012 feet above sea level, a decrease of 1,560 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 6 nautical miles. Following this descent, the aircraft entered another cruise phase, flying for 4 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 24 at EGEI Clutton Hill Airstrip was made from the north-east, with the aircraft flying at a heading of 225.0 degrees and an altitude of 679 feet above ground level. The landing was made on a runway with a length of 750 meters, and the threshold height was above the target, but the threshold speed was good at 61 knots.
The touchdown point was located very far down the runway, using more than 50% of the available runway. The touchdown speed was good at 51 knots, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -135 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 5.5 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and a headwind of 6 knots from a direction of 199 degrees.
The total landing distance was 615 meters, which was 82% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was also slightly misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centreline. The total flight distance was 166 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 97 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 58 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Cessna C172 aircraft successfully landed at EGEI Clutton Hill Airstrip, achieving a score of 73.9%. The final approach to runway 24 was initiated from the north east, heading 225.0° at 2 nautical miles and 679 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft's approach was characterized by a threshold height that was above the target, indicating a slightly higher-than-desired altitude at the point of touchdown.
Upon landing, the aircraft's threshold speed was good, reaching 61 knots, which is within the acceptable range. However, the touchdown point was located very far down the runway, utilizing more than 50% of the available 750-meter runway. This suggests that the aircraft may have been slightly too slow or that the pilot may have been attempting to stretch out the landing. The touchdown speed of 51 knots was still within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -135 feet per minute (fpm).
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 10°C and a wind speed of 8 knots from 199°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 6 knots. These conditions were generally favorable for landing, although the slight crosswind may have required some adjustments from the pilot.
The total landing distance of 615 meters was 82% of the available runway, indicating that the aircraft had sufficient stopping distance. However, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 9.1 meters from the centerline, suggesting that the pilot may have been struggling to maintain a straight course during the rollout phase.
Overall, while the landing was successful, there were some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of touchdown point location and runway rollout alignment. With some adjustments to technique and attention to detail, the pilot can work towards achieving a higher score and more precise landings.
