Default Things to remember in very hot weather

If by "most people" you mean the majority of the people in the world,
you are correct.

If by "most people" you mean the people who live in warm climates
don't fly in hot weather, you are wrong.

I didn't qualify the term, so I mean most people in the world. Someone who
always flies in moderate weather might easily forget the special precautions
that must be taken in extremely hot weather, which invalidates the assertion
that people (pilots) who don't know the answer to my question should not be
flying.

Likewise, someone who flies in a desert climate where icing and rain are
rarely issues might easily forget the special precautions that apply in such
conditions.
