North Las Vegas Airport serves Las Vegas, Nevada at 2,205 ft elevation with its longest runway, 07/25, at 5,005 by 75 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
07/25	5,005 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit

12L/30R	4,199 × 75 ft	asphalt	lit

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 2,205 ft is about 11°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, 11°C)	2,205 ft	2,868 ft	2,343 ft	3,514 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	3,405 ft	3,102 ft	2,469 ft	3,704 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	4,605 ft	3,336 ft	2,596 ft	3,894 ft
35°C afternoon	5,134 ft	3,439 ft	2,652 ft	3,977 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (07/25, 5,005 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,977 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 KVGT is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.

KLAS Harry Reid International Airport	8 nm S	14,835 ft
KHND Henderson Executive Airport	14 nm S	6,501 ft
KBVU Boulder City Municipal Airport	23 nm SE	5,103 ft

04Jet A prices and FBOs at KVGT

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