01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 02/20 | 6,011 × 100 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 1,359 ft is about 12°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, 12°C) | 1,359 ft | 2,703 ft | 2,253 ft | 3,380 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,559 ft | 2,937 ft | 2,380 ft | 3,570 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,759 ft | 3,171 ft | 2,507 ft | 3,760 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 4,085 ft | 3,235 ft | 2,541 ft | 3,811 ft |
