I fly a Cessna 150. Our airport has one runway; it's 12,300 feet by
150 feet. The overruns are about 1000 feet on each end. We often have
density altitudes of over 1.4 thousand feet.
Should I be worried?


Definitely! 150 ft are somewhat short for a 150 at gross, especially
at this DA. 12000 ft width are more than enough, though.
