The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport. The aircraft, a Carenado B55, required a takeoff distance of 379 meters, which is 21% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was achieved at 101 knots. At the time of departure, the local weather conditions were characterized by a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 269 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and headwind component.

As the aircraft entered the right-hand pattern from runway 23, it covered a distance of 1 nautical mile in 186 seconds. The subsequent right-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in less than 1 nautical mile in just 14 seconds. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind turn, covering a distance of 9 nautical miles at an angle of 52.8 degrees to the runway. The downwind leg itself was short, lasting less than 1 nautical mile in 12 seconds.

The base leg turn was another 9-nautical-mile segment, with the aircraft turning at an angle of 118.3 degrees to the runway. The base leg itself was 7 nautical miles long and took 196 seconds to complete. The final turn was a short one, lasting less than 1 nautical mile in 33 seconds. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 05, which is located at EGPE Inverness Airport. The approach was made from the southwest, with the aircraft heading 47.0 degrees at an altitude of 648 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 05 was successful, with the aircraft touching down 202 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 76 knots, which is considered good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -120 feet per minute. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating a well-executed landing. At the time of landing, the local weather conditions were similar to those at departure, with a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 1 knot from a direction of 270 degrees. This resulted in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component.

The flight was completed with a total distance of 17 nautical miles, taking 11 minutes to cover this distance. The aircraft used a total of -184 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport in the Carenado B55

Landing Score 95.93 %

Landing Summary

The Carenado B55 aircraft successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in aviation skills. The final approach to runway 05 was initiated from the south west, with a heading of 47.0° at 2 nautical miles and 648 feet above ground level (agl). This approach was executed with precision, taking into account the aircraft's speed and altitude to ensure a smooth touchdown.

Upon landing, the aircraft touched down 202 meters beyond the touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation from the ideal touchdown point. However, the touchdown speed of 76 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown rate of -120 feet per minute (fpm) was also smooth, suggesting that the pilot successfully managed the aircraft's energy and rate of descent.

The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's ability to align the aircraft with the runway centerline and maintain a stable approach. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 16°C and a wind speed of 1 knot from 270°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 1 knot each, which further contributed to the smooth and controlled nature of the landing.

Overall, the landing of the Carenado B55 at EGPE Inverness Airport was a success, with a score of 95.9%. This achievement reflects the pilot's high level of skill and experience in aviation, as well as their ability to adapt to changing weather conditions and navigate complex flight scenarios.
