KT16 · Reserve Airport
Reserve Airport serves Reserve, New Mexico at 6,360 ft elevation with its longest runway, 06/24, at 4,800 by 50 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 | 4,800 × 50 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 6,360 ft is about 2°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, 2°C) | 6,360 ft | 3,678 ft | 2,781 ft | 4,171 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 7,560 ft | 3,913 ft | 2,908 ft | 4,361 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 8,760 ft | 4,147 ft | 3,034 ft | 4,551 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 10,286 ft | 4,444 ft | 3,195 ft | 4,793 ft |
