<DIV><SPAN class=617040013-05012005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hey,
I was out flying on Christmas Eve in OK and it was about 22 degrees.....
I spent extra time warming the YS at idle, but thoughts were crossing my mind
about how bad the cold weather is on our equipment (nylon components etc....)
. I'm sure the guys up North have limits on cold temps and I'd be
interested to hear your concerns or special cares.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
