Mid-Way Regional Airport serves Midlothian/Waxahachie, Texas at 713 ft elevation with its longest runway, 18/36, at 6,500 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.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 713 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)	713 ft	2,577 ft	2,185 ft	3,278 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	1,913 ft	2,811 ft	2,312 ft	3,468 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,113 ft	3,045 ft	2,438 ft	3,658 ft
35°C afternoon	3,284 ft	3,079 ft	2,456 ft	3,685 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (18/36, 6,500 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,685 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 KJWY is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
