Fresno Yosemite International Airport serves Fresno, California at 336 ft elevation with its longest runway, 11L/29R, at 9,539 by 150 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 336 ft is about 14°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, 14°C)	336 ft	2,504 ft	2,145 ft	3,218 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	1,536 ft	2,738 ft	2,272 ft	3,408 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	2,736 ft	2,972 ft	2,399 ft	3,598 ft
35°C afternoon	2,817 ft	2,987 ft	2,407 ft	3,611 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (11L/29R, 9,539 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,611 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 KFAT is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

Airport	Distance	Longest runway
KMAE Madera Municipal Airport	23 nm NW	5,545 ft
KHJO Hanford Municipal Airport	28 nm S	5,179 ft
KVIS Visalia Municipal Airport	32 nm SE	6,562 ft
KC80 New Coalinga Municipal Airport	46 nm SW	5,000 ft

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KFAT

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