K0M3 · Paul Bridges Field
Paul Bridges Field serves Hohenwald, Tennessee at 972 ft elevation with its longest runway, 02/20, at 4,001 by 75 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.

01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 02/20 | 4,001 × 75 ft | asphalt (good) | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 972 ft is about 13°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, 13°C) | 972 ft | 2,628 ft | 2,213 ft | 3,319 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,172 ft | 2,862 ft | 2,339 ft | 3,509 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,372 ft | 3,096 ft | 2,466 ft | 3,699 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,605 ft | 3,141 ft | 2,490 ft | 3,735 ft |
