<DIV><STRONG><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>Very true Ken.. But the
nurses side of me likes to keep all safe from hurting themselves. Seen to much
of it in warmer temps. Course you can pack the wound with clean snow and ice to
stop the bleeding.. That is mentioned jokingly in case someone wants to
take it to seriously. It would work in right circumstances done correctly
though.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT face="MS Sans Serif" size=2>I call it smart. Much easier
to get caught up in whirling meat cleaver with heavy bulky clothing and
keepings ones balance, let alone not having good feeling in extremities to
maintain safety. Everyone is different and has different tolerances to heat
and cold. Ask those that have fainted? Is much easier to happen next time
after heat stroke. As I stated... I will stick with calling it smart.

pretty much agree with Karl, Chad, & Eric. The balsa foam airplane
may change trim, depending on the linkage, hard to tell just what will
happen with the composites. Batteries are the biggest concern. When I
lived where it got cold I would test airborne radio systems in the
freezer at 0F. About 25% of the servos simply quit working -
everything else seemed OK. As the most volatile fuel component
has a flash point (makes flammable vapors) of +50F, engine starting is
a problem. As Karl mentions, lighter fluid (couple of drops) helps. My
record for cold flight is -6F, but the best solution I've found is
moving south - been in the upper 70's in Houston all week.<?/smaller><?/fontfamily><BR> <BR><?fontfamily><?param Arial><?smaller>Earl<?/smaller><?/fontfamily><BR><?fontfamily><?param Arial><?x-tad-bigger>-----

I was out flying on Christmas Eve in OK and it was about 22

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
