01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18/36 | 5,820 × 60 ft | asphalt (good) | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 6,696 ft is about 2°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, 2°C) | 6,696 ft | 3,744 ft | 2,816 ft | 4,225 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 7,896 ft | 3,978 ft | 2,943 ft | 4,415 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 9,096 ft | 4,212 ft | 3,070 ft | 4,604 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 10,703 ft | 4,526 ft | 3,239 ft | 4,859 ft |
