As to struggling in the heat I remember a single engined height climb in Tanzania with 5H-MUM.
Geof Croot flying said after a few seconds into the climb "we have established a rate of decent"!!!!!
The 105 you mention went down in the Wash whilst doing a Seal count, the machine landed on a Sand Bar, the Pilot was Michael Bond who I flew with many times.
