01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 09/27 | 6,001 × 100 ft | asphalt | lit |
| 18/36 | 4,021 × 75 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 850 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) | 850 ft | 2,604 ft | 2,200 ft | 3,300 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,050 ft | 2,838 ft | 2,326 ft | 3,489 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,250 ft | 3,072 ft | 2,453 ft | 3,679 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,454 ft | 3,112 ft | 2,474 ft | 3,712 ft |

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