Things to remember in very hot weather

just how long do you think it stays 43 C when you are flying for
real?

Most of the flight, at moderate altitudes, or at least it stays too
hot for most of the flight. My baron has an "air conditioning"
switch, but it's not clear whether or not this is the real thing,
since the real thing requires a compressor.


You don't have a Baon, you fjukkkwit.

you truely are an idiot.

I fly across the nullabor plain in summer with temperatures on the
ground near 45 degrees celcius, my aircraft has no cooling or
airconditioning whatsoever and yet I fly in temperatures between 0
degrees and 5 degrees absolutely reliably.

can your little brain figure out how I do it.
every pilot here can do it.

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.

The difference would only be a few degrees at 4000 feet, and that's not enough
when the temperature at the surface is 43° C. Additionally, the temperature
inside the aircraft would be higher at all times.

In a standard atmosphere, 43C at sea level would translate to 35C at
4000MSL.

I was flying just yesterday and the temp was around 38° C nominal and easily
3-4° C hotter on the ramp. Once you get the big fan blowing in the front
and open the windows, it's certainly tolerable. We were flying locally at
about 4000 MSL and with the photo window open providing extra ventilation,
it was quite nice.

Right now at KTUS it's about 38° C on the ground, 25° C @ 6000 MSL, 17° C @
9000 MSL.

Even normally aspirated piston aircraft can generally get to 9000 MSL even
on hot days. Turbocharged aircraft can generally get to at least twice
that. Even above TUS today during the hottest part of the day if you're
above 12000 MSL you're probably going to be running the heater.

And yes, even on a 43° C it's a helluva lot more fun flying a real aircraft
than flying a computer in a climate controlled room.
