The weather was perfect today, so I took full advantage by going flying. I cleared a couple of inches of snow from in front of the hangar while the engine was preheated with warm air blown up from the cowling exit.
The temperature was -13 deg C (+9 deg F), and clear skies - pretty typical for an Ottawa winter day. The cold air really makes the aircraft perform well. I flew over to Ottawa for several practice instrument approaches. It was quite quiet at the airport, with very little traffic, so they let me fly ILS RWY 32, RNAV RWY 25 and ILS RWY 07 approaches. After that I did some aerobatics and then called it a day.Happy New Year to all!
