From: In your head.
For the purpose of understanding. Say you have an engine that is flat rated at ISA+30 and therefore can produce full power without becoming temperature limited, the worst case scenario would then be the "High" situation, as the air density is less than in the "Low" situation.

There are, basicaly, two different but coincident factors.

Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?
