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.


Well, yeah, but I wouldn't use that to make the decision as to whether
or not huge piles of money should be spent to combat global warming.

I think we need something from traceable, calibrated instruments with
error bars on the numbers, which is what hopefully the airplane is
getting.
