Default Is it colder at the approach end of the runway?

Well, sometimes things that are common knowledge are incorrect.

Jose, you sound like your buddy MX. When I returned from luch today I walked
from a concrete parking lot over about 10 feet of grass to enter the
building. I did not need airborne equipment to tell me it was warmer over
the concrete than it was over the grass.


BTW: My original interest in the story was thinking about the lucky
pilot who got the job to fly a Citation (as I recall) around in
circles for 4 hours/day. Where do I sign up?
