The hot weather was in the sim, not in real life (fortunately).
That's another advantage of simulation. There would be nothing fun
about flying
at
43° C in real life.


I doubt it would be uncomfortably hot at 3-4000 feet if it's 43° C on
the ground. Maybe you're flying too close to the ground.

I'll disagree, 43° C (109 f.) is extremely uncomfortable at 3000'.
Unless you have A/C in the plane, I don't.

Yep, 43° C (109 f.) WOULD be extremely uncomfortable at 3000'. But it
probably not that hot at 3000 if it's 43C on the ground.


It's be 37 and most likely below that, in fact.
