Excuse my laziness but if anyone feels like checking some distances for
me I would be greatly appreciative

172SP, fully loaded, 73' field elevation (Bermuda Dunes, CA), 120
degrees F, paved runway, assume no wind.

I have a feeling the density altitude isn't going to make this feasible.


Partial listing, Short-field performance (from 172SP IM), 2550lb:

ground roll/clear 50' obstacle. Pressure altitudes.

temp 0deg 10deg 20deg 30deg 40deg C

SL 860/1465 925/1575 995/1690 1070/1810 1150/1945
1K 940/1600 1010/1720 1090/1850 1170/1990 1260/2135
2K 1025/1755 1110/1890 1195/2035 1285/2190 1380/2355
3K 1125/1925 1215/2080 1310/2240 1410/2420 1515/2605

decrease distance 10% for each 9 knot headwind. Increase distance 10%
for each 2knots of tailwind up to 10 knots.

Luck.
