Colorado City Municipal Airport serves Colorado City, Arizona at 4,874 ft elevation with its longest runway, 11/29, at 6,300 by 75 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting

02/20	5,099 × 60 ft	asphalt (good)	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 4,874 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)	4,874 ft	3,389 ft	2,624 ft	3,936 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	6,074 ft	3,623 ft	2,751 ft	4,126 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	7,274 ft	3,857 ft	2,877 ft	4,316 ft
35°C afternoon	8,444 ft	4,085 ft	3,001 ft	4,501 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (11/29, 6,300 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,501 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 KAZC is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KAZC

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KAZC, 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. Log a price at KAZC or read what a fuel stop actually saves.
