Aircraft performance is a measure of how well an aircraft flies. It includes many factors such as:  Weight, Atmospheric conditions, Pressure, Temperature, Humidity, Runway at takeoff, Density altitude. 

Aircraft performance can include:
Speed
Ceiling
Range
Fuel efficiency
Take-off distance required
Climb rate
Aircraft controllability speeds 

Aircraft performance can be calculated using density altitude. As air density decreases, aircraft performance decreases. 

Flight mechanics of high-performance aircraft includes:
Equations of motion
Aerodynamic forces
Propulsion systems
Descent and glide performance
Cruise performance
Climb 

Flight mechanics can be divided into five broad areas:
Trajectory analysis (performance)
Stability and control
Aircraft sizing
Simulation
Flight testing
