| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 1,015 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) | 1,015 ft | 2,636 ft | 2,217 ft | 3,326 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,215 ft | 2,870 ft | 2,344 ft | 3,516 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,415 ft | 3,104 ft | 2,470 ft | 3,705 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,659 ft | 3,152 ft | 2,496 ft | 3,744 ft |
