Cielo Dorado Estates Airport serves Anthony, New Mexico at 3,750 ft elevation with its longest runway, NE/SW, at 4,000 by 50 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.

Private-use airfield. The FAA file marks this field private use. It is listed here for reference. Landing needs the owner's prior permission, and there may be no fuel or services. Do not plan it as a fuel stop or a routine alternate.

02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 3,750 ft is about 8°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, 8°C)	3,750 ft	3,169 ft	2,506 ft	3,758 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	4,950 ft	3,403 ft	2,632 ft	3,948 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	6,150 ft	3,637 ft	2,759 ft	4,138 ft
35°C afternoon	7,050 ft	3,813 ft	2,854 ft	4,281 ft

Planning aid only. On a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (NE/SW, 4,000 ft) is within 20 percent of the 1.5x landing figure for a Meridian-class turboprop (4,281 ft). Plan hot-day departures for the morning and check the POH. 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.
