"Whilst on the subject of temperature corrections.
Consider minimum altitudes in 'cold' regions. (basically at altitudes)
Does anyone out there have a table for regions / climatology (coldest temp for a time of year) / correction chart?
Do companies prescribe minimum flight altitudes for certain areas at certain 'cold' times?
What are your policies on minimum altitudes?
safe wishes."
I used to fly for a company whose routes were mostly in the Arctic , all aircraft have temperature correction charts and they are used. I don't worry too much until the temp goes below freezing and then I apply the correction to the altiitudes.
