01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 07/25 | 5,003 × 75 ft | asphalt (good) | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 1,411 ft is about 12°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, 12°C) | 1,411 ft | 2,713 ft | 2,259 ft | 3,388 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,611 ft | 2,947 ft | 2,385 ft | 3,578 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,811 ft | 3,181 ft | 2,512 ft | 3,768 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 4,150 ft | 3,247 ft | 2,548 ft | 3,822 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at K0VG
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at K0VG, 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.
