02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 990 ft is about 13°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, 13°C)	990 ft	2,631 ft	2,214 ft	3,322 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,190 ft	2,865 ft	2,341 ft	3,512 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,390 ft	3,099 ft	2,468 ft	3,701 ft
35°C afternoon	3,628 ft	3,146 ft	2,493 ft	3,739 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (01/19, 5,499 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,739 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 KPEO is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KPEO

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