01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 07/25 | 5,400 × 100 ft | asphalt | lit |
| 16/34 | 4,311 × 100 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 296 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) | 296 ft | 2,496 ft | 2,141 ft | 3,212 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,496 ft | 2,730 ft | 2,268 ft | 3,402 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,696 ft | 2,964 ft | 2,394 ft | 3,592 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,767 ft | 2,978 ft | 2,402 ft | 3,603 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KLFK
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KLFK, 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.
