Kerrville / Kerr County Airport at Louis Schreiner Field serves Kerrville, Texas at 1,617 ft elevation with its longest runway, 12/30, at 6,004 by 100 ft. The figures below are computed from FAA NASR runway data (via OurAirports) and the same rules of thumb JetDesk uses on the airport page in the app; the POH and current NOTAMs are the authority.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,617 ft is about 12°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, 12°C)	1,617 ft	2,753 ft	2,281 ft	3,421 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,817 ft	2,987 ft	2,407 ft	3,611 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,017 ft	3,221 ft	2,534 ft	3,801 ft
35°C afternoon	4,405 ft	3,297 ft	2,575 ft	3,862 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (12/30, 6,004 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,862 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 KERV is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

K5C1 Boerne Stage Field	25 nm SE	5,006 ft

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KERV

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