Yes indeed, and it's interesting how the 2500m runway with adverse environmental factors may focus the mind differently to JSI in ISA conditions and still air. Some may be more focused and some may be less, but in reality both cases require the same flying parameters for a successful minimal stress outcome. But of course we're getting into human factors now which possibly is going off piste for this thread.
