01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14/32 | 4,074 × 75 ft | asphalt (PEM) | lit |
| 02/20 | 3,204 × 75 ft | asphalt (PEM) | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 11 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) | 11 ft | 2,440 ft | 2,111 ft | 3,167 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,211 ft | 2,674 ft | 2,238 ft | 3,357 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,411 ft | 2,908 ft | 2,364 ft | 3,547 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,414 ft | 2,909 ft | 2,365 ft | 3,547 ft |

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