The initial preparations for the flight were conducted with precision. Taxiing from the parking to the runway at CYXS Prince George Airport took 6 minutes and covered approximately 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 15 and performed a smooth takeoff, with a takeoff distance of 2,512 ft, which made up 23% of the runway. The aircraft reached its liftoff speed of 97 kt quickly.
The flight then began its climb, starting 1 mile southeast of CYXS Prince George Airport. Over the course of 22 minutes, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 3,201 ft asl to 30,003 ft asl, a total increase of 26,802 ft. This climb covered a distance of 74 nm, allowing the aircraft to rise above the local weather conditions. The temperature was 62 °F at the time of departure, and the wind speed was a mere 3 kt from the southwest.
Once the initial climb reached its conclusion, the aircraft entered its level cruise phase. This portion of the flight began 9 miles northeast of CBJ8 Fraser Lake Seaplane Base Vanderhoof and lasted for 38 minutes, during which time the aircraft maintained its altitude at 30,003 ft asl. This cruise phase covered a substantial distance of 195 nm, and by the end of it, the aircraft had traveled a significant portion of its intended route.
As the aircraft approached its destination, it initiated its descent. This began 8 miles west of CBA3 Kincolith Seaplane Base Prince Rupert and continued for 22 minutes, during which time the aircraft descended from 29,695 ft asl to 1,532 ft asl, a total decrease of 28,163 ft. This descent covered a distance of 62 nm, bringing the aircraft back to the ground.
The final approach to runway 11 at PAKT Ketchikan International Airport was conducted from the northwest, with the aircraft heading 133.0° at an altitude of 1,422 ft agl. As the aircraft lined up for landing, the local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 68 °F and a gentle 3 kt wind from the southwest.
The landing itself was conducted smoothly, with a touchdown speed of 66 kt and a touchdown rate of -144 fpm. However, the touchdown point was 251 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 48 ft from the centerline. Despite this, the runway rollout alignment was slightly misaligned by 47 ft from the centerline.
Taxiing from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 339 nm, and the entire journey took 92 minutes, during which time the aircraft consumed 628 lbs of fuel. The overall flight was conducted with a focus on safety and efficiency, and the aircraft performed well throughout the trip.

The Vision Jet, a business aircraft, successfully landed at PAKT Ketchikan International Airport on runway 11. The final approach was initiated from the northwest, heading 133.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,422 feet Above Ground Level (AGL).
The landing performance of the Vision Jet was evaluated with regards to its approach and touchdown speeds. Although the threshold speed was well above the target at 80 knots, the touchdown speed at 66 knots was deemed satisfactory. Furthermore, the touchdown rate of -144 feet per minute was assessed as smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent.
However, there were a few areas of improvement identified. The threshold height at 71 feet AGL was significantly above the target, suggesting a deviation from the standard approach procedure. Additionally, the runway touchdown position was 48 feet off-centreline, indicating some misalignment during the landing phase. This issue was also observed during the post-landing rollout, where the aircraft veered off-centreline by 47 feet.
Weather conditions at the time of landing were relatively calm, with a temperature of 68°F and a wind speed of 3 knots from a direction of 225°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, and there was no headwind to contend with. Despite the slightly suboptimal approach conditions, the Vision Jet demonstrated a good landing performance in terms of touchdown speed and rate.
