How fast does the skin of the airplane cool to surrounding temperatures?
writes:
On a clear night the skin temperature can go BELOW the air
temperature due to the radiation losses into space.
The temperature of the aircraft won't drop below the temperature of
the ambient air, as long as the aircraft is dry.
