Pueblo Memorial Airport serves Pueblo, Colorado at 4,726 ft elevation with its longest runway, 08R/26L, at 10,498 by 150 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.

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
08R/26L	10,498 × 150 ft	asphalt	unlit

08L/26R	4,690 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 4,726 ft is about 6°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, 6°C)	4,726 ft	3,360 ft	2,609 ft	3,913 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	5,926 ft	3,594 ft	2,735 ft	4,103 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	7,126 ft	3,828 ft	2,862 ft	4,293 ft
35°C afternoon	8,260 ft	4,049 ft	2,981 ft	4,472 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (08R/26L, 10,498 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,472 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 KPUB is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KPUB

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