The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the aircraft, a DA40-XLS, successfully took off after covering a distance of 293 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was recorded at 66 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.
Following the takeoff, the aircraft entered a right-hand pattern from runway 23, completing the maneuver in less than 1 nautical mile in 28 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind was executed over a distance of 2 nautical miles in 66 seconds. The pattern downwind turn covered a distance of 3 nautical miles, with an angle to the runway of 45 degrees and a turn angle of 34.5 degrees. The downwind leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 13 seconds.
As the aircraft approached the runway, it began a final approach to runway 05 from the southwest, heading at 48.0 degrees and at an altitude of 544 feet above ground level, approximately 2 nautical miles from the runway. The landing on runway 05, which had a length of 1,814 meters, was successful, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 68 knots. The touchdown distance was 335 meters, and the touchdown speed was 47 knots, both of which were considered good. The touchdown rate was an excellent -81 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind blowing at 2 knots from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 1 knot and a tailwind of 2 knots. The total flight distance was 8 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 6 minutes, during which the aircraft used 3 kilograms of fuel.

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, showcasing exceptional piloting skills. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, aligning with the runway 05 at a heading of 48.0°, approximately 2 nautical miles away and at an altitude of 544 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach allowed the aircraft to touch down safely on the runway.
The landing was executed with a high degree of accuracy, with the aircraft aligning perfectly with the runway threshold. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude for landing. The threshold speed of 68 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed during the approach.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft maintained a good distance from the runway threshold, with a touchdown distance of 335 meters. This is a significant achievement, as it indicates that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and speed to ensure a safe and controlled landing. The touchdown speed of 47 knots was also within the acceptable range, further emphasizing the pilot's skill and experience.
One of the most impressive aspects of this landing was the touchdown rate, which was an excellent -81 feet per minute (fpm). This indicates that the pilot was able to control the aircraft's descent and speed to ensure a smooth and controlled touchdown. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to navigate the aircraft to the correct position on the runway.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a wind speed of 2 knots from 270°. The crosswind was minimal, at 1 knot, and the tailwind was 2 knots, which did not pose any significant challenges for the pilot.
