Morristown Regional Airport serves Morristown, Tennessee at 1,313 ft elevation with its longest runway, 05/23, at 5,718 by 100 ft.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,313 ft is about 12°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, 12°C)	1,313 ft	2,694 ft	2,249 ft	3,373 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,513 ft	2,928 ft	2,375 ft	3,563 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,713 ft	3,162 ft	2,502 ft	3,753 ft
35°C afternoon	4,028 ft	3,224 ft	2,535 ft	3,802 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (05/23, 5,718 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,802 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 KMOR is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KMOR

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