01Runways
| Runway | Length × width | Surface | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18/36 | 5,002 × 100 ft | asphalt | lit |
02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 86 ft is about 15°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, 15°C) | 86 ft | 2,455 ft | 2,119 ft | 3,179 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,286 ft | 2,689 ft | 2,246 ft | 3,369 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,486 ft | 2,923 ft | 2,372 ft | 3,558 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,507 ft | 2,927 ft | 2,374 ft | 3,562 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KTVR
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at KTVR, 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.
