The flight began with a departure roll from runway 23 at EGPE Inverness Airport, a small airport located in the Highland region of Scotland. The aircraft, a Piper PA-24-250 Comanche, accelerated down the runway and lifted off at a speed of 60 kt, covering a distance of 81 m, which accounted for just 4% of the runway's total length. The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind blowing at 4 kt from a direction of 273 °.
As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it began to ascend from an initial altitude of 447 ft above sea level to a higher altitude of 613 ft, a gain of 166 ft over a period of 2 minutes. During this time, the aircraft covered a distance of 1 nm, marking the beginning of its enroute climb. The climb was initiated overhead the airport, allowing the pilot to take advantage of the surrounding terrain and optimize the aircraft's performance.
As the flight progressed, the aircraft began its final approach to runway 05 at EGPE Inverness Airport, descending from an altitude of 584 ft above ground level (agl) while heading in a southerly direction at a bearing of 48.0 °. The aircraft was positioned approximately 1 nm from the runway threshold at this point, preparing for its landing.
The landing itself was executed smoothly, with the aircraft touching down on the runway at a speed of 42 kt. The touchdown point was located 118 m beyond the designated touchdown zone, but the pilot managed to maintain perfect runway alignment throughout the rollout. The aircraft's touchdown rate was an impressive -79 fpm, indicating a gentle and controlled descent. The local weather conditions at the time of landing were similar to those at takeoff, with a temperature of 15 °C and a gentle wind blowing at 4 kt from a direction of 273 °.
The total landing distance covered by the aircraft was 791 m, which accounted for 44% of the runway's total length. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating the pilot's skill and control throughout the landing process. The total flight distance was a relatively short 3 nm, and the flight duration was approximately 4 minutes. The aircraft consumed a total of 2 kg of fuel during the flight, indicating a high level of efficiency and economy.

The Piper PA-24-250 Comanche successfully landed at EGPE Inverness Airport, showcasing a high level of proficiency in aviation skills. The aircraft approached the runway from the south-west, aligning itself with the runway at a heading of 48.0°, approximately 1 nautical mile away and at an altitude of 584 feet above ground level (agl). This precise approach allowed the pilot to maintain control and execute a smooth landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft landed 118 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation. However, the touchdown speed of 42 knots was well within the acceptable range, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's descent and speed. The touchdown rate of -79 feet per minute (fpm) was also excellent, demonstrating the pilot's ability to control the aircraft's descent and maintain a stable approach.
The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 15°C and a gentle wind of 4 knots from 273°. The crosswind and tailwind components were minimal, at 3 knots each, which further contributed to the smooth landing. The runway length of 1,814 meters provided ample space for the aircraft to land and roll out, and the pilot took advantage of this by executing a perfect rollout alignment.
The total landing distance of 791 meters, which accounts for 44% of the runway length, is a testament to the pilot's skill and experience. This distance is relatively short, indicating that the pilot had successfully managed the aircraft's speed and descent to achieve a smooth and controlled landing. Overall, the landing was a success, with the pilot demonstrating a high level of proficiency in aviation skills and a deep understanding of aircraft handling and control.
