Its really been hot and today was supposed to get up to 103 or more. I still wanted to fly for a while, but need to get it done before the heat got up too high. I choose the Alvord because I would have a tailwind coming back. I liked the scenery from the last flight, so I again climbed up to 6000 for the view. The second picture has the only wildlife that I saw on the whole trip. Its hard to see since I am 1000 feet agl, but there is a line of "mustangs" just in front of the plane shadow. The rest is just scenery. Even though there is 11 pictures, none are bigger than 400 k's
I flew for 1.5 hours, burning 4 gallons of fuel. Most of the way I used the HACman system to lean the fuel, but when I turned towards home, The air temps at 6500 feet was 77 at 11 AM. I saw that my cht's was running at 320 degrees. I still had 15 degrees to go, but I richened the fuel just to see how much the temps came down and they dropped 16 degrees when running normal without leaning. It was heating up rapidly, and I had no inclination to dodge Dust Devils, so I turned for home.
