01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18/36 | 4,400 × 100 ft | asphalt (good) | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 897 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) | 897 ft | 2,613 ft | 2,205 ft | 3,307 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,097 ft | 2,847 ft | 2,331 ft | 3,497 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,297 ft | 3,081 ft | 2,458 ft | 3,687 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,512 ft | 3,123 ft | 2,481 ft | 3,721 ft |
