Banning Municipal Airport serves Banning, California at 2,219 ft elevation with its longest runway, 08/26, at 4,955 by 100 ft.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,219 ft is about 11°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, 11°C)	2,219 ft	2,871 ft	2,344 ft	3,516 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,419 ft	3,105 ft	2,471 ft	3,706 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,619 ft	3,339 ft	2,597 ft	3,896 ft
35°C afternoon	5,152 ft	3,443 ft	2,654 ft	3,980 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (08/26, 4,955 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,980 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 KBNG is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KBNG

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