I may have to go to the Regina, SK, CA/Minnesota area this winter for 2
months.

First Is Snow How Deep Before Ski's Are Needed? Ware to obtain ski's for a
cessna 150?

Best Type of Oil Heater?

Should One Use a Cowl Warmer?

I Notice in the manual something about a winterization Kit Can I
install/uninstall it my self? Can you still buy the winterization kit? If so
ware is the best place to buy?

Any Tips For Landing on Ice And Snow!

Any Extra Pre-Flight Inspections Needed For Extreme Cold Weather

Any other useful tips for that type of flying gladly accepted.


On approach to a snowy runway you may find banks of snow
right at the threshold, depending on who plowed.

Even the wings may encounter the snow bank half way down
the nice runway..

Also land without brake usage planned. Making
speed control more importent.

I have never landed except on snow. But read in the
AOPA magazine and heard it said that half ice and half
pavement is the worst situation. eXCEPT all ice with
six inch ruts seems like the worst to me.
