Hi,

With the very high temperatures we have in West Europe this week, I've realized that the almost only information I don't have in Skydemon is a density altitude calculator. I do not speak about implementing a complete performance calculator (this is not what I expect from SD), but a gentle calculator with a clear marking of the density altitude for a specific place (METAR-based) could be a gentle reminder that reviewing the performance tables is not optional.

Today, due to the temperature, taking-off from my usual airfield would have been very challenging

You'll only see density altitude calculated where the airfield has issued a METAR containing wind and temperature information. You can check the date of the latest METAR that SkyDemon has by going to the METAR section for the airfield.

Thanks for this feature! I would find it more intuitive to see it with the metars directly.
