01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 02/20 | 5,000 × 75 ft | concrete | lit |
| 13/31 | 3,039 × 60 ft | asphalt | unlit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 3,134 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) | 3,134 ft | 3,049 ft | 2,441 ft | 3,661 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 4,334 ft | 3,283 ft | 2,567 ft | 3,851 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 5,534 ft | 3,517 ft | 2,694 ft | 4,041 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 6,286 ft | 3,664 ft | 2,773 ft | 4,160 ft |
