I'm in mid Canada, approx one hour from US border. the temp hear is just about freezing to same below freezing snow on the ground
but melting some days. I've been too chicken lately to fly but with all the going on (holidays and so), did not get a chance to fly,
last year before my wings I went as often as possible even in freezing weather. Yes I've been keeping a eye on Lanny2003 too.
About patzane's story! we had a similar thing happened hear in the past but he admitted that it looked easier to fly then a full scale.
I thing though he got his wing last summer and funny thing he got himself a Nextstar to start all over. Nice guy get's along with every one here.
