01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14/32 | 8,500 × 150 ft | asphalt | lit |
| 18/36 | 5,501 × 102 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 401 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) | 401 ft | 2,516 ft | 2,152 ft | 3,228 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,601 ft | 2,750 ft | 2,279 ft | 3,418 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,801 ft | 2,984 ft | 2,406 ft | 3,608 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,897 ft | 3,003 ft | 2,416 ft | 3,623 ft |
