I also leave a cube heater in the cabin w/ a t-stat cube on both products.

Doesn't it fog up/ice up as soon as you pull the plane out of the hangar?

That's what happened to me when I tried pre-heating the cabin. The heater
melted all the water that had frozen into the carpeting after the last
flight, and then when I pulled the plane out into the cold -- whoosh! It
all condensed on the windows, and instantly froze!

Took a long time sitting there with the defroster on before I could
depart... ;-(
