| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 05/23 | 4,575 × 60 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 4,183 ft is about 7°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, 7°C) | 4,183 ft | 3,254 ft | 2,551 ft | 3,827 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 5,383 ft | 3,488 ft | 2,678 ft | 4,017 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 6,583 ft | 3,722 ft | 2,805 ft | 4,207 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 7,587 ft | 3,918 ft | 2,910 ft | 4,366 ft |
