02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,110 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)	1,110 ft	2,654 ft	2,227 ft	3,341 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,310 ft	2,889 ft	2,354 ft	3,531 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,510 ft	3,123 ft	2,480 ft	3,720 ft
35°C afternoon	3,776 ft	3,174 ft	2,508 ft	3,763 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (17/35, 8,599 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,763 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 KLAW is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KLAW

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