Sure it’s hot here at home but take a close look at this image. Hot sun beating down, steel deck radiating up, heat from the cats, and more from the jet exhaust. Add the protective flight deck clothing and you’ve got one heck of a weight-loss program. At first glance the image would appear to be out of focus. Nope, that’s the heat. Just like asphalt in summer.
