Thats what i keep telling everyone ;-) There is a circular mass of air that comes around from the pacific bringing warm air with it. It's called the Chinook or more commonly "The pineapple express" However if you look closely you will see not regular jeans but fleece lined. And the footware is good for -80 F and three layers of shirts. I can also say that the prop blast will get your hands cold in a HURRY. I start the engine with gloves on but i just can't fly with them on.

Just because it's cold does not mean we should stop flying. The coldest i have taken a plane out to fly is -43 F I got less than two minutes from the batt before it could not fly anymore.
