I can't begin to imagine what's it like to be freezing on the ramp like that. I've seen the look on you feeder pilots faces as we taxi to our parking spot at the gateway in our warm jet. I always try and wave to you feeder pilots as we drive away to the hotel in our warm hotel van.


OLD pilots have it made
 
I don't know what the MX is doing up in Billings, but the last time I flew a Metro it had both heat and AC, and the thing was warming up nicely before you taxied it off the customer's ramp. And I'll take the Dallas climate over anything North of I40 every day of the week.
 
10 seconds at speeds high on taxi out usually will fix that...

in 428MA, make sure there are no boxes leaning against any of the registers, I've seen boxes charred after unloading them, scaaaary!

Most of the MA birds will do that if you run manual hot. The heat ducts come out in the old "walkway" channels. I've seen plastic check boxes melted coming back from New Orleans. (Ok, it was a while ago.)
