02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 822 ft is about 13°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, 13°C)	822 ft	2,598 ft	2,197 ft	3,295 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,022 ft	2,832 ft	2,323 ft	3,485 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,222 ft	3,066 ft	2,450 ft	3,675 ft
35°C afternoon	3,419 ft	3,105 ft	2,471 ft	3,706 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (01/19, 5,102 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,706 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 KHFY is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
