Piston Engine : Propeller driven aircraft with high-octane gasoline fed reciprocating engines. Mostly small aircraft.
Turboprop : Propeller driven aircraft with turbine engines
Turbofan/Jet : Do not use propellers for thrust but get power directly from a turbine engine. Usually fuel be a diesel fuel, Jet-A.
Engine Types

Runway performance is different for every aircraft
Will determine runway length requirements Dependent upon:
Aircraft Weight Landing gear Fuel capacity (weight) Aircraft performance under certain weather
conditions
Runway Performance

Temperature, air pressure, and wind speed can affect how an aircraft will perform
Runway length, aircraft noise, energy consumption, and flight distances are dependent upon the atmospheric conditions
Performance: Atmospheric Conditions
