Statesville Regional Airport serves Statesville, North Carolina at 968 ft elevation with its longest runway, 10/28, at 7,003 by 100 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.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 968 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)	968 ft	2,627 ft	2,212 ft	3,318 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,168 ft	2,861 ft	2,339 ft	3,508 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,368 ft	3,095 ft	2,465 ft	3,698 ft
35°C afternoon	3,600 ft	3,140 ft	2,490 ft	3,735 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (10/28, 7,003 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,735 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 KSVH is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
