Phoenix flights cancelled due to extreme heat
- boulos 9y agoWow. From the article: > the cancellations mostly affected regional flights on the smaller Bombardier CRJ airliners, which have a maximum operating temperature of about 118F (48C). That seems like an awfully low cutoff point. The article alludes to this being about lift / needing to get more thrust to compensate. How much more lift are we talking about to get into 130F territory?
