02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 134 ft is about 15°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, 15°C)	134 ft	2,464 ft	2,124 ft	3,186 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	1,334 ft	2,698 ft	2,251 ft	3,376 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	2,534 ft	2,932 ft	2,377 ft	3,566 ft
35°C afternoon	2,566 ft	2,938 ft	2,381 ft	3,571 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (05/23, 5,501 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,571 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 KGWW is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KGWW

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KGWW, 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.
