Conrad Airport serves Conrad, Montana at 3,545 ft elevation with its longest runway, 06/24, at 4,602 by 75 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
06/24	4,602 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit
15/33	2,800 × 100 ft	turf	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 3,545 ft is about 8°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, 8°C)	3,545 ft	3,129 ft	2,484 ft	3,726 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	4,745 ft	3,363 ft	2,611 ft	3,916 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	5,945 ft	3,598 ft	2,737 ft	4,106 ft
35°C afternoon	6,796 ft	3,763 ft	2,827 ft	4,240 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (06/24, 4,602 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (4,240 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 KS01 is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KS01

No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KS01, 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 KS01 or read what a fuel stop actually saves.
