Oberlin Municipal Airport serves Oberlin, Kansas at 2,703 ft elevation with its longest runway, 17/35, at 4,301 by 60 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
17/35	4,301 × 60 ft	asphalt	lit
12/30	2,832 × 130 ft	turf (fair)	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,703 ft is about 10°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, 10°C)	2,703 ft	2,965 ft	2,395 ft	3,593 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,903 ft	3,199 ft	2,522 ft	3,783 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	5,103 ft	3,433 ft	2,648 ft	3,973 ft
35°C afternoon	5,752 ft	3,560 ft	2,717 ft	4,075 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (17/35, 4,301 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,075 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 KOIN is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KOIN

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