| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 5,500 ft is about 4°C. Every 1,000 ft of density altitude adds roughly 8 percent to a turboprop's takeoff distance and 5 percent to its landing distance. The table uses Piper Meridian book numbers (2,438 ft takeoff and 2,110 ft landing over a 50 ft obstacle at sea level, ISA, max weight) as a reference airplane; heavier turboprops and light jets scale the same way from their own POH figures.
| Conditions | Density altitude | Takeoff est. | Landing est. | Landing × 1.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard day (ISA, 4°C) | 5,500 ft | 3,511 ft | 2,690 ft | 4,035 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 6,700 ft | 3,745 ft | 2,817 ft | 4,225 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 7,900 ft | 3,979 ft | 2,943 ft | 4,415 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 9,220 ft | 4,236 ft | 3,083 ft | 4,624 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at 41U
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at 41U, the app flags a price stale after two weeks, and the route finder ranks every field within a corridor of your route by net savings after the cost of the extra cycle.
