Recirculate cockpit air to keep feet warm?
And nothing beats wool for staying warm.Â* It even keeps you warm when
it's wet.Â* A little tidbit from arctic survival school... On 12/29/2018 1:38 PM, Charlie M. (UH & 002 owner/pilot) wrote: I have done only a few flights above 13K' MSL in the east, never higher than that. In other parts, 13K' MSL is a decent Soaring day. So, I am NOT an expert! Yes, metal rudder pedals can suck heat real fast. Sunlight can help a lot. Being damp (rigging, damp day, whatever.....) REALLY sucks heat. I can only go by many years/miles hiking and likely lower flight altitudes for flying. I will TOTALLY defer to others that think my "great altitude" is sorta the bottom of their "safe altitude". Gotta think of where you are vs. where info is coming from. -- Dan, 5J
