The flight began with the aircraft, a Build 406 Caravan II cargo plane, taxiing from the parking area to the runway at KRSW Southwest Florida International Airport. This process took 5 minutes and covered a distance of 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then departed from runway 06, with a takeoff distance of 966 meters, which accounted for 26% of the runway. The liftoff speed was 119 knots.

The local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 280 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 8 knots and a tailwind of 8 knots. As the aircraft climbed, it began its enroute climb 2 miles southeast of Gateway, Florida, and ascended from an altitude of 1,031 feet above sea level to 1,440 feet, an increase of 409 feet, in just 1 minute and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its enroute descent 3 miles east of Gateway, Florida, and descended from an altitude of 1,430 feet above sea level to 866 feet, a decrease of 564 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft continued its flight, starting another enroute climb 2 miles south of FL59 Buckingham Field Fort Myers, Florida, and climbed from an altitude of 865 feet above sea level to 1,739 feet, an increase of 874 feet, in 2 minutes and covering a distance of 4 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 06 at KRSW Southwest Florida International Airport from the southwest, heading 54.0 degrees at an altitude of 284 feet above ground level and a distance of 1 nautical mile from the runway. The aircraft landed on runway 06, which had a length of 3,653 meters, and had a good threshold height. The threshold speed was 100 knots, and the touchdown distance was good at 409 meters. The touchdown speed was 85 knots, and the touchdown rate was fair at -228 feet per minute.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.3 meters from the centerline, and the local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 319 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 11 knots and a tailwind of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 906 meters, which accounted for 25% of the runway. The runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 22.7 meters from the centerline.

The total flight distance was 16 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 11 minutes. The aircraft used 43 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing Summary

The aircraft in question, an ATR 42-600, successfully landed at KRSW Southwest Florida International Airport on runway 06. The final approach was initiated from the southwest, heading 54.0° at 1 nautical mile and 284 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot maintained a steady descent, adhering to the standard threshold speed of 100 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 409 meters, which is within the acceptable range. The touchdown speed was recorded at 85 knots, slightly below the threshold speed, indicating a smooth and controlled landing. However, the touchdown rate was fair at -228 feet per minute (fpm), which may indicate a slight loss of altitude during the landing roll.

The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.3 meters from the centerline, which may have contributed to the subsequent rollout alignment issues. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 29°C and a wind speed of 11 knots at 319°. The crosswind component was 11 knots, while the tailwind component was minimal at 1 knot.

The total landing distance was 906 meters, which is approximately 25% of the runway length. This is a relatively short landing distance, indicating that the pilot successfully managed the aircraft's speed and descent. However, the runway rollout alignment was misaligned by 22.7 meters from the centerline, which may have been a result of the initial touchdown position being off-center.

Overall, the landing was successful, with the aircraft touching down safely and rolling out within a reasonable distance. However, there were some minor issues with the touchdown position and rollout alignment, which may require attention from the pilot to improve future landings.
