| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18/36 | 5,001 × 75 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 676 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) | 676 ft | 2,570 ft | 2,181 ft | 3,272 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,876 ft | 2,804 ft | 2,308 ft | 3,462 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,076 ft | 3,038 ft | 2,435 ft | 3,652 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,238 ft | 3,070 ft | 2,452 ft | 3,677 ft |

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