02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 4,557 ft is about 6°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, 6°C)	4,557 ft	3,327 ft	2,591 ft	3,886 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	5,757 ft	3,561 ft	2,717 ft	4,076 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	6,957 ft	3,795 ft	2,844 ft	4,266 ft
35°C afternoon	8,051 ft	4,008 ft	2,959 ft	4,439 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (03/21, 7,360 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,439 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 KCNY is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
