The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, where the DA40-XLS aircraft took off with a takeoff distance of 289 meters, which accounted for 16% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 62 knots. At the time of takeoff, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 2 knots at 269 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 2 knots.
After takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern from runway 23, completing the turn in less than 1 nautical mile in 15 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was also completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 26 seconds. The pattern downwind leg covered a distance of 2 nautical miles in 57 seconds, followed by a base leg that was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in 20 seconds. The final turn, which was also a left-hand turn, covered a distance of 6 nautical miles in 305 seconds.
The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, which was located to the southwest. The aircraft was at an altitude of 1,132 feet above ground level (agl) and was 4 nautical miles away from the runway. The heading during the final approach was 48.0 degrees.
The landing on runway 05 was successful, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 62 knots, but the touchdown distance was good at 276 meters. The touchdown speed was 45 knots, which was considered good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -134 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 3 knots at 279 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 3 knots and a tailwind of 2 knots.
The total landing distance was 498 meters, which accounted for 27% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was also very good. The total flight distance was 14 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 10 minutes. The aircraft used 40 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The DA40-XLS aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, demonstrating a high level of proficiency in its pilot. The final approach was conducted from the southwest, heading 48.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,132 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, taking into account the local weather conditions.
The temperature at the time of landing was 15°C, with a relatively calm wind of 3 knots at 279°. The crosswind component was minimal at 3 knots, while the tailwind component was slightly stronger at 2 knots. Despite these conditions, the pilot maintained excellent control of the aircraft, ensuring a smooth touchdown.
The threshold speed was slightly below the target speed of 62 knots, but this did not affect the overall performance of the landing. The touchdown distance of 276 meters was good, and the touchdown speed of 45 knots was also within acceptable limits. The touchdown rate of -134 feet per minute (fpm) was smooth, indicating a well-controlled descent.
The runway touchdown alignment was very good, demonstrating the pilot's ability to accurately align the aircraft with the runway. The total landing distance of 498 meters was only 27% of the runway length, indicating a short and efficient landing. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, showing that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase.
Overall, this landing was a testament to the pilot's skill and experience with the DA40-XLS aircraft. The precision and control demonstrated during the approach, touchdown, and rollout phases were exceptional, and the landing was executed with a high degree of proficiency.
