KC20 · Andrews University Airpark
Andrews University Airpark serves Berrien Springs, Michigan at 668 ft elevation with its longest runway, 13/31, at 4,148 by 70 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 13/31 | 4,148 × 70 ft | asphalt | lit |
| 03/21 | 2,298 × 180 ft | turf | unlit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 668 ft is about 14°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, 14°C) | 668 ft | 2,568 ft | 2,180 ft | 3,271 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,868 ft | 2,802 ft | 2,307 ft | 3,461 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,068 ft | 3,036 ft | 2,434 ft | 3,651 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,228 ft | 3,068 ft | 2,451 ft | 3,676 ft |
03Nearby fields with 5,000 ft or more

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KC20
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KC20, 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.
