Aircraft Maximum Outside Air Temperature Limit

[MauleSkinner]

David:

When I said I have never run up against the ISA +35 limit, I just KNEW I'd regret it! Left Vegas today at an advertised temp of 44 C, just a degree or two short. The temp on the ramp felt even worse. Even when I went back there after 10:00 PM, it was still 38 C. Just too friggin hot! I still havn't cooled down.

Best,

Yeah, but it was a DRY heat...kinda like here in MN when it's -40 it's a DRY cold...only FEELS like -35 or so

Fly safe!

I need a nap.

This thread made me forget anything I ever knew about Temp and P.A.

Now I have to go back to school............thank you all!

So my question is, let's say im going to operate an aircraft at a Sea Level airport but the temperature is 50 Celsius and the pressure is 29.70, how would I adjust the ISA to add to 37 C since it would be something other than 15 C since it's a non standard day?

Thanks for your help!

If the temp is 50ºC (122ºF!!!), you should just put the chocks in, go inside where there is AC and have an ice cold lemonade.
