| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 07/25 | 4,000 × 75 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 1,139 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) | 1,139 ft | 2,660 ft | 2,230 ft | 3,345 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,339 ft | 2,894 ft | 2,357 ft | 3,535 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,539 ft | 3,128 ft | 2,483 ft | 3,725 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,812 ft | 3,181 ft | 2,512 ft | 3,768 ft |
