02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 81 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) | 81 ft | 2,454 ft | 2,119 ft | 3,178 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 1,281 ft | 2,688 ft | 2,245 ft | 3,368 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 2,481 ft | 2,922 ft | 2,372 ft | 3,558 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 2,500 ft | 2,926 ft | 2,374 ft | 3,561 ft |
