Goodland Municipal Airport serves Goodland, Kansas at 3,656 ft elevation with its longest runway, 12/30, at 5,499 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
12/30	5,499 × 100 ft	concrete	lit
05/23	4,001 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit
17/35	1,754 × 40 ft	turf	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 3,656 ft is about 8°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, 8°C)	3,656 ft	3,151 ft	2,496 ft	3,744 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	4,856 ft	3,385 ft	2,622 ft	3,933 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	6,056 ft	3,619 ft	2,749 ft	4,123 ft
35°C afternoon	6,933 ft	3,790 ft	2,841 ft	4,262 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (12/30, 5,499 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,262 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 KGLD is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KGLD

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