Eveleth–Virginia Municipal Airport serves Eveleth, Minnesota at 1,379 ft elevation with its longest runway, 09/27, at 4,000 by 75 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
09/27	4,000 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit
05/23	2,685 × 110 ft	turf	unlit
14/32	2,050 × 100 ft	asphalt	lit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,379 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)	1,379 ft	2,707 ft	2,255 ft	3,383 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,579 ft	2,941 ft	2,382 ft	3,573 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,779 ft	3,175 ft	2,509 ft	3,763 ft
35°C afternoon	4,110 ft	3,240 ft	2,544 ft	3,815 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (09/27, 4,000 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,815 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 KEVM is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KEVM

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