02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 4,868 ft is about 5°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, 5°C)	4,868 ft	3,387 ft	2,624 ft	3,935 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	6,068 ft	3,622 ft	2,750 ft	4,125 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	7,268 ft	3,856 ft	2,877 ft	4,315 ft
35°C afternoon	8,436 ft	4,083 ft	3,000 ft	4,500 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (01/19, 6,200 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,500 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 KKNB is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
