01Runways

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,670 ft is about 12°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, 12°C)	1,670 ft	2,764 ft	2,286 ft	3,429 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,870 ft	2,998 ft	2,413 ft	3,619 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,070 ft	3,232 ft	2,539 ft	3,809 ft
35°C afternoon	4,471 ft	3,310 ft	2,582 ft	3,873 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (17/35, 5,900 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,873 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 KJYR is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KJYR

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