If your body is cold for winter flying (actually, flying all the way to 

Miama is cold) I have a great solution.  Dont wear one of those overblown 

puffed up snow mobile suits.  I have what I think they call a helo artic 

suit.  It is designed exactly as a normal flight suit only it is packed with 

some special ingrediant that keeps you warm no matter what.  It is think, 

maybe 1/4 inch thick and zippers all over it.  Wind does not go through it. 

Warm stays in.  I used it when I had a Kobra (almost a quicksilver) rag and 

tube plane.  Flew down to 32 degress or more and NEVER got cold.  Hands are 

something else but there are lots of skiiing mits to fix that.  If you want 

pics, let me know.  I stand about 5'7" and it used to fit good until I got 

paunchy.  I would say for someone up to 170 lbs or so.  The first hundred 

bucks takes it and I will ship it for free.  Dont like it just hanging in my 

closet.  Let it get out there and fly again.  Ted Cowan, Alabama, Slingshot 

912ul.  (yes, I still have my rum rum)

Ted, diverging slightly from the string, re: the rum-rum.  I also had a similar effect which I have partially blamed

on a personal hearing defect.  I have a blocked right eustachian tube which makes background noise pulse in time

with my heartbeat.  The sound became detectable long before the blockage.  I do intend to eventually see a doc about it.

Ted -- IMHO the rum-rum that comes in bottles is the best kind.
