The flight began with the Vision Jet taxiing from the parking area to the runway at EGKA Brighton City Airport, a process that took 5 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The departure roll took place on runway 20, with the aircraft taking off after covering 34% of the runway's length, which was 259 meters. The liftoff speed was 90 knots.
As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a wind speed of 24 knots at 240 degrees. The crosswind was 15 knots, while the headwind was 19 knots. The enroute climb started overhead Lancing, West Sussex, England, where the aircraft began its ascent from 1,006 feet above sea level to 29,078 feet above sea level, an increase of 28,072 feet in 22 minutes, covering a distance of 74 nautical miles.
The enroute level cruise started 1 mile north of Woburn Sands, Milton Keynes, England, and lasted for 91 minutes, covering a distance of 404 nautical miles. The enroute descent began 12 miles south of EG62 Lamb Holme, Lamb Holme, Orkney Islands, Scotland, where the aircraft descended from 28,661 feet above sea level to 1,311 feet above sea level, a decrease of 27,350 feet in 19 minutes, covering a distance of 88 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27 at EGPB Sumburgh Airport was made from the east, heading 261.0 degrees at 4 nautical miles and 1,287 feet above ground level. The landing took place on runway 27, which was 1,305 meters long, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was excessively high at 94 knots. The touchdown point was very long, using more than 50% of the available runway, with a touchdown speed of 65 knots, which was good, and a touchdown rate of -15 feet per minute, which was perfect.
The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 21.1 meters from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 20.0 meters from the centreline. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 14°C temperature and a wind speed of 34 knots at 229 degrees, with a crosswind of 19 knots and a headwind of 28 knots. The total landing distance was 738 meters, which was 57% of the runway's length.
After landing, the aircraft taxiied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 572 nautical miles, which was covered in 142 minutes, and the aircraft used 481 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at EGPB Sumburgh Airport, but the landing was not without its issues. The final approach to runway 27 was initiated from the east, heading 261.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,287 feet above ground level. The aircraft touched down on the runway, but the touchdown point was significantly long, using more than 50% of the available runway.
The threshold speed was excessively high at 94 kt, which is a concern as it may have contributed to the long touchdown point. However, the touchdown speed at 65 kt was good, and the touchdown rate of -15 fpm was perfect. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 14°C, with a wind speed of 34 kt at 229°. This resulted in a crosswind of 19 kt and a headwind of 28 kt.
The runway touchdown position was significantly misaligned by 21.1 meters from the centreline, which is a concern for safety. Additionally, the runway rollout alignment was also misaligned by 20.0 meters from the centreline. The total landing distance was 738 meters, which is 57% of the available runway length of 1,305 meters.
Overall, while the Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at EGPB Sumburgh Airport, there are areas for improvement, particularly with regards to the threshold speed and runway alignment. The pilot should work on reducing the threshold speed and improving the runway alignment to ensure a smoother and safer landing.
