Tompkinsville Monroe County Airport serves Tompkinsville, Kentucky at 1,036 ft elevation with its longest runway, 04/22, at 4,000 by 75 ft.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 1,036 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)	1,036 ft	2,640 ft	2,219 ft	3,329 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	2,236 ft	2,874 ft	2,346 ft	3,519 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,436 ft	3,108 ft	2,472 ft	3,709 ft
35°C afternoon	3,685 ft	3,157 ft	2,499 ft	3,748 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (04/22, 4,000 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,748 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 KTZV is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KTZV

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