02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins
Standard temperature at 1,027 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) | 1,027 ft | 2,638 ft | 2,218 ft | 3,328 ft |
| Warm day (ISA +10) | 2,227 ft | 2,872 ft | 2,345 ft | 3,517 ft |
| Hot day (ISA +20) | 3,427 ft | 3,106 ft | 2,472 ft | 3,707 ft |
| 35°C afternoon | 3,673 ft | 3,154 ft | 2,498 ft | 3,746 ft |

04Jet A prices and FBOs at N23
No public API publishes FBO fuel prices, so JetDesk does not guess. Pilots and crews log the price they actually paid at N23, 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.
