Bolivar Municipal Airport serves Bolivar, Missouri at 1,092 ft elevation with its longest runway, 18/36, at 4,000 by 75 ft. The figures below are computed from FAA NASR runway data (via OurAirports) and the same rules of thumb JetDesk uses on the airport page in the app; the POH and current NOTAMs are the authority.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,092 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)	1,092 ft	2,651 ft	2,225 ft	3,338 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,292 ft	2,885 ft	2,352 ft	3,528 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,492 ft	3,119 ft	2,478 ft	3,718 ft
35°C afternoon	3,754 ft	3,170 ft	2,506 ft	3,759 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (18/36, 4,000 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,759 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 KM17 is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
