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.

Do you fly?

109F on the ground would be at or near 100F at 3,000. That's still hot,
especially with the sun beating on you through the windows.


Actually, it would probably be lower, but it depends on the stability of
the air on the day...


Like what? Maybe 97 or 98? G

Wouldn't that be NEAR 100? G
