| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 09/27 | 4,549 × 75 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 669 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) | 669 ft | 2,568 ft | 2,181 ft | 3,271 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,869 ft | 2,803 ft | 2,307 ft | 3,461 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,069 ft | 3,037 ft | 2,434 ft | 3,651 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,230 ft | 3,068 ft | 2,451 ft | 3,676 ft |

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