Not for the air, av8tor1977.
See attachment of post #28.

Copied from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

"Viscosity in gases arises principally from the molecular diffusion that transports momentum between layers of flow. The kinetic theory of gases allows accurate prediction of the behavior of gaseous viscosity.

Within the regime where the theory is applicable:

Viscosity is independent of pressure and
Viscosity increases as temperature increases."
