Stallion Army Air Field serves Socorro, New Mexico at 4,925 ft elevation with its longest runway, 14/32, at 4,000 by 100 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.

Military airfield. This is a military airfield in the FAA file. It is listed here for reference and for emergency planning. Civil use needs prior permission, there is no FBO, and no Jet A you can buy. Do not plan it as a fuel stop or a routine alternate.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 4,925 ft is about 5°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, 5°C)	4,925 ft	3,399 ft	2,630 ft	3,944 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	6,125 ft	3,633 ft	2,756 ft	4,134 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	7,325 ft	3,867 ft	2,883 ft	4,324 ft
35°C afternoon	8,507 ft	4,097 ft	3,007 ft	4,511 ft

Planning aid only. On a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (14/32, 4,000 ft) is within 20 percent of the 1.5x landing figure for a Meridian-class turboprop (4,511 ft). Plan hot-day departures for the morning and check the POH. 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.

04Fuel and services at K95E

There is no public FBO fuel to log at K95E. JetDesk collects Jet A prices that pilots actually paid, at civil fields, and its route finder leaves military and private-use fields out of every ranking. Read what a fuel stop actually saves.
