01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 02/20 | 4,250 × 184 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 10 ft is about 15°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, 15°C) | 10 ft | 2,440 ft | 2,111 ft | 3,167 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,210 ft | 2,674 ft | 2,238 ft | 3,356 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,410 ft | 2,908 ft | 2,364 ft | 3,546 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,412 ft | 2,908 ft | 2,364 ft | 3,547 ft |
