Town & Country Airpark serves Lubbock, Texas at 3,200 ft elevation with its longest runway, 17/35, at 5,144 by 70 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
17/35	5,144 × 70 ft	asphalt	lit
07/25	1,524 × 110 ft	turf	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 3,200 ft is about 9°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, 9°C)	3,200 ft	3,062 ft	2,448 ft	3,671 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	4,400 ft	3,296 ft	2,574 ft	3,861 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	5,600 ft	3,530 ft	2,701 ft	4,051 ft
35°C afternoon	6,368 ft	3,680 ft	2,782 ft	4,173 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (17/35, 5,144 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,173 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 KF82 is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
