Keeping Your Hands Warm
Credit Dave North with this Baylands Cold Weather Survival Technique: Between flights, treat your hands to a quick warming session under the hand dryer in the public restroom.
Gloves blunt the chill, but they blur the feel of your transmitter sticks. And handwarmers, such as those used by Crazy Ted, require forethought and a small investment.
But the blower is free, always waiting for another pair of cold mitts.

I heard that 90% of your body heat leaves through your hands and if your head gets cold, the first thing you should do is put gloves on!

What is Doug saying? Sounds like he wants me to put a glove on my head! I would look like a chicken if I did that. Oh well, if I must.
I don’t want to question Doug’s wisdom.

Nah Mike. What he’s telling you is, if your hands get cold, put on a hat.
I think.

I think I’d give you a buck if you put a glove on your head - hell 2 bucks and I get a picture…

I am amazed that Pete actually went into the bathroom with a camera, and TOOK the picture! What did other “patrons” said?
