That was going to be one of my next questions....can it be too hot to fly? I guess so.

Be careful. And don’t pass out from the heat getting to or from work.

Yeah, it’s pretty bad. Very low humidity too, ten percent. What happens is when it gets very hot the air molecules are further apart (low density) and therefor not enough flow over the wings, no lift. Right now it’s cooled down, finally. We’re at 99F ....LOL
