Tullahoma Regional Airport William Northern Field serves Tullahoma, Tennessee at 1,083 ft elevation with its longest runway, 06/24, at 5,501 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.

01Runways

Runway	Length × width	Surface	Lighting
06/24	5,501 × 100 ft	asphalt (PEM)	unlit
18/36	4,205 × 100 ft	concrete	lit
09/27	3,130 × 100 ft	graded earth	unlit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,083 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)	1,083 ft	2,649 ft	2,224 ft	3,336 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,283 ft	2,883 ft	2,351 ft	3,526 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,483 ft	3,117 ft	2,477 ft	3,716 ft
35°C afternoon	3,743 ft	3,168 ft	2,505 ft	3,757 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (06/24, 5,501 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,757 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 KTHA is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

KBGF Winchester Municipal Airport	15 nm SE	5,003 ft
KFYM Fayetteville Municipal Airport	25 nm SW	5,900 ft

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KTHA

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