01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14/32 | 4,002 × 75 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 45 ft is about 15°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, 15°C) | 45 ft | 2,447 ft | 2,115 ft | 3,172 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,245 ft | 2,681 ft | 2,241 ft | 3,362 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,445 ft | 2,915 ft | 2,368 ft | 3,552 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,456 ft | 2,917 ft | 2,369 ft | 3,554 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KEPM
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KEPM, 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. Log a price at KEPM or read what a fuel stop actually saves.
