02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 833 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)	833 ft	2,600 ft	2,198 ft	3,297 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,033 ft	2,835 ft	2,324 ft	3,487 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,233 ft	3,069 ft	2,451 ft	3,677 ft
35°C afternoon	3,433 ft	3,108 ft	2,472 ft	3,708 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (05/23, 4,429 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,708 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 KRYV is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KRYV

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