Trego WaKeeney Airport serves WaKeeney, Kansas at 2,435 ft elevation with its longest runway, 17/35, at 4,008 by 50 ft. The figures below are computed from FAA NASR runway data (via OurAirports) and the same rules of thumb JetDesk uses on the airport page in the app; the POH and current NOTAMs are the authority.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,435 ft is about 10°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, 10°C)	2,435 ft	2,913 ft	2,367 ft	3,550 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,635 ft	3,147 ft	2,493 ft	3,740 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,835 ft	3,381 ft	2,620 ft	3,930 ft
35°C afternoon	5,419 ft	3,495 ft	2,682 ft	4,023 ft

Planning aid only. On a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (17/35, 4,008 ft) is within 20 percent of the 1.5x landing figure for a Meridian-class turboprop (4,023 ft). Plan hot-day departures for the morning and check the POH. The percentages are a generic rule of thumb applied to one reference airplane, not certified performance data for any specific aircraft, and the runway size categories describe the runway, not your airplane's suitability. Verify with the approved flight manual before every flight.

03Nearby fields with 5,000 ft or more

Useful as alternates, as fuel stops when the price at K0H1 is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at K0H1

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at K0H1, 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. Log a price at K0H1 or read what a fuel stop actually saves.
