Default when is ok to fly

Reptile,

I just got back in from flying my little nifty fifty off the snow. Here in western Pa, the snow is about 1 1/2 feet deep and it "warmed up" to about 30 degrees today, so I headed out. Got a nice 10 min flight in even though it was slightly breezy and more importantly snowing. Did a couple of touch and goes - smooth as glass on the snow and finally ran out of fuel so I had to land. By that time the visibility was down so that I was afraid I'd lose sight of the plane so I quit. Had fun though.

Just thought I'd let you know its fun to fly off the snow with skiis.
