Default Withering heat...

It was 94 degree here at 11 AM, with enough humidity to curl my ever-
diminishing hair. Even though it's a beautiful day here, Unicom is
dead -- ain't nobody flying till the sun gets lower...


Welcome to our world.


We flew at High Noon today, with the temp at 95 degrees. It actually
wasn't too bad, and I just kept reminding myself of all those bitterly
cold flights we made last winter....

Later I actually took a nap in the hangar, with the thermometer well
over 95. I was sitting in a mesh chair with TWO fans blowing on me
from behind, and that white noise combined with a cold beer to induce
a nice, 45 minute nap.
