01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |

| 08/26 | 4,822 × 60 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 5,622 ft is about 4°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, 4°C) | 5,622 ft | 3,535 ft | 2,703 ft | 4,055 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 6,822 ft | 3,769 ft | 2,830 ft | 4,245 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 8,022 ft | 4,003 ft | 2,956 ft | 4,434 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 9,371 ft | 4,266 ft | 3,099 ft | 4,648 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KCDC
