02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 745 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) | 745 ft | 2,583 ft | 2,189 ft | 3,283 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,945 ft | 2,817 ft | 2,315 ft | 3,473 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,145 ft | 3,051 ft | 2,442 ft | 3,663 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,324 ft | 3,086 ft | 2,461 ft | 3,691 ft |

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