The temperature at Latur is hitting 41 degrees C during the day. It may have been a bit hot for a heavy 76
The 76 is a machine for temperate climes. Turn the heat up and it can't pull the skin off a rice pudding. Definitely overloaded, milking and pulling everything available, till he runs into rotor droop and resultant loss of yaw control.
