Rock Hill - York County Airport serves Rock Hill, South Carolina at 666 ft elevation with its longest runway, 02/20, at 5,500 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 666 ft is about 14°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, 14°C)	666 ft	2,568 ft	2,180 ft	3,270 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	1,866 ft	2,802 ft	2,307 ft	3,460 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	3,066 ft	3,036 ft	2,433 ft	3,650 ft
35°C afternoon	3,226 ft	3,067 ft	2,450 ft	3,676 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (02/20, 5,500 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,676 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 KUZA is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
