This flight was conducted in a DA40-NG aircraft, a type of single-engine, four-seat plane. The pre-flight taxiing process was brief, taking less than a minute to cover a distance of less than one nautical mile from the parking area to the runway. The aircraft then departed from runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a small airport located in Inverness, Scotland. The takeoff distance was 523 meters, which accounted for 29% of the runway's total length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 61 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of departure were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the west.
After departing from EGPE Inverness Airport, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, during which it flew overhead the airport for a brief period of one minute, covering a distance of two nautical miles. This phase was likely used to gain altitude and establish a steady flight path.
The final approach to runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport was conducted from the north-east, with the aircraft heading towards the runway at an angle of 229.0 degrees. The aircraft was at an altitude of 93 feet above ground level (agl) and was 0 nautical miles away from the runway threshold. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a gentle wind of 1 knot from the west.
The landing on runway 23 was smooth and controlled, with the aircraft touching down at a speed of 54 knots. The touchdown distance was 66 meters, which was a good indication of the pilot's skill and control. The touchdown rate was also smooth, at -121 feet per minute (fpm), and the runway touchdown alignment was perfect. The total landing distance was 163 meters, which accounted for only 9% of the runway's total length.
After landing, the aircraft rolled out on the runway, maintaining perfect alignment. The total flight distance was three nautical miles, and the flight duration was three minutes. The aircraft used a total of one kilogram of fuel during the flight. Overall, the flight was characterized by smooth and controlled operations, with the pilot demonstrating good skills and judgment throughout the flight.

The DA40-NG aircraft successfully landed on runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, achieving a perfect score of 100.0%. The final approach was initiated from the north-east, heading 229.0° at 0 nm and 93 ft above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated excellent control and precision throughout the landing process.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft's speed was slightly below the target threshold speed of 58 kt, registering at 54 kt. However, this minor deviation did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 66 m was also within acceptable limits, indicating a smooth and controlled descent. The touchdown rate of -121 fpm was particularly noteworthy, as it signified a gentle and stable landing.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind of 1 kt at 269°. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind, allowing the aircraft to maintain perfect runway alignment. The runway touchdown alignment was indeed perfect, with the aircraft aligning itself precisely with the centerline of the runway.
The total landing distance of 163 m was remarkably short, accounting for only 9% of the runway length. This indicates that the aircraft was able to maintain a high level of control and precision throughout the landing process. The runway rollout alignment was also perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its alignment with the centerline of the runway even after touchdown.
Overall, the DA40-NG aircraft demonstrated exceptional landing skills and precision, achieving a perfect score of 100.0% on this occasion. The combination of excellent control, smooth touchdown, and precise runway alignment made this landing a textbook example of a well-executed approach and landing.
