Worked out there one January for a few days, some of which was inside the mill - that big metal drum rotates. It was 47 degrees outside, and when we emerged from the mill, it was a relief to get out of the heat....
The following day flying home was the only time I have had the oil temps in the green BEFORE starting the engine.....
Ah, the great old days. RIP grass hopper.
It was the only place in oz that I can recall almost fainting due to the heat. big thing for a desert dweller like myself.
