The other question is this:

When I start doing cross-country flight planning, will I spend time investigating the historicity of destination and alternate airport ambient temperatures and relative humidity levels, so that I don't make the mistake of landing in an airport that I can't get out of? Or, am I placing too much emphasis on the effects of density altitude on real aircraft performance?

To me, it would seem like I would want to match the aircraft to the mission profile and not necessarily think that I can fly just anything into any situation. Or, am I being overly concerned?
