Stanton Municipal Airport serves Stanton, Texas at 2,731 ft elevation with its longest runway, 16/34, at 4,240 by 60 ft.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,731 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)	2,731 ft	2,971 ft	2,398 ft	3,597 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,931 ft	3,205 ft	2,525 ft	3,787 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	5,131 ft	3,439 ft	2,651 ft	3,977 ft
35°C afternoon	5,786 ft	3,567 ft	2,720 ft	4,081 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (16/34, 4,240 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,081 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.

03Nearby fields with 5,000 ft or more

Useful as alternates, as fuel stops when the price at K63F is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at K63F

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at K63F, 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.
