Default Things to remember in very hot weather

"Mxsmanic" wrote in message
...

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.


This knowledge is required for a private pilot in the USA. I suspect it's
similar for other countries as well. Someone who doesn't know this either is
not a pilot, or somehow has beaten the system. In either case he/she should
not be flying.
