02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 5,930 ft is about 3°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, 3°C)	5,930 ft	3,595 ft	2,736 ft	4,103 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	7,130 ft	3,829 ft	2,862 ft	4,293 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	8,330 ft	4,063 ft	2,989 ft	4,483 ft
35°C afternoon	9,753 ft	4,340 ft	3,139 ft	4,708 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (04/22, 5,000 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,708 ft needed). 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.
