Departing from Inverness Airport (EGPE), the Sirius aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 23, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 59 kt within 205 meters, which represented 11% of the available runway length. The local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt from 270°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the left-hand traffic pattern, it demonstrated a high degree of agility, completing the pattern entry in less than 1 nm in 18 seconds. The subsequent crosswind turn was executed with precision, requiring a distance of less than 1 nm in 22 seconds. The pattern downwind turn was initiated at an angle of 74.2° to the runway, with a distance of 1 nm covered during the turn. The downwind leg itself spanned 2 nm, taking 79 seconds to complete. The base leg and final turn were executed with equal efficiency, with distances of less than 1 nm covered in 51 and 27 seconds, respectively.

The final approach to runway 23 was conducted from the north-east, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 229.0° at 0 nm and 103 ft above ground level. The landing was executed with precision, with the touchdown speed of 40 kt being slightly below the target threshold speed of 51 kt. The touchdown distance of 385 meters was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of 16 fpm was perfect. The runway touchdown alignment was also spot on, indicating a high degree of pilot skill and aircraft performance. The total flight distance of 6 nm was covered in 5 minutes, with a fuel consumption of 1 kg.

Landing Summary

The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport from the north east was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 229.0° at 0 nm and 103 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was slightly below the target at 51 kt, indicating a slight delay in the touchdown process.

As the aircraft touched down on the runway, the touchdown distance was good at 385 m, and the touchdown speed of 40 kt was within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of 16 fpm was perfect, demonstrating excellent control and stability during the landing phase. The runway touchdown alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft centered on the runway centerline. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 270°, contributed to a smooth and stable approach.

The rollout phase was uneventful, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout. The overall performance of the landing was impressive, with a score of 96.8% achieved. The slight delay in threshold speed was the only deviation from an otherwise flawless landing, demonstrating the pilot's ability to adapt to changing circumstances and maintain a high level of proficiency.
