1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

For the wind chill to be that low the wind speed would have to be around 8,000,000 MPH! :o ;D

Actually, winds over 40 mph have little additonal chilling effect. That would have to be almost pure temp.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

It could be worse....

For once, I am happy with rainy England which has predictable temperature.... Cold but without much effort put in from mother nature.
