Bring on the shorter nights!

Hi,

I tried a heater mod that uses a flap to redirect air from behind the oil cooler into the cabin. Unfortunately it didn't generate a lot of heat. Last year, flying over Mt Snowden at 9500' it wa ...

Hi all.

The weather's not playing ball. At this stage it's looking unlikely, but I'l keep my fingers crossed. How many are going to fly from the UK and elsewhere?
