VF,
I am constantly amazed at yout high OAT at lower altitudes, but here at 23K it's as if you're back in the freezer. Is that when you break through the inversion layer that the rules become normal again? tet |
Top of the World
Namaste TET
Normal :rolleyes: hahahaha there seems to be no normal ISA days here? Flying at the 'Top of the World' we seem to have our own unique weather patterns??? Yes we are almost constantly having inversion layers. It is also winter now, hence the big chill :ok: lots more power :) but the Jet Streams are much lower so really BIG winds & even bigger turbulence :{ Always know where the wind is & do everything into wind except peeeee:yuk: VF |
