Well thanks but at -26 this morning I think it might take a while to warm up. 
 Although i haven't taken a ship out for a few years now I always did wait 
for my runway to freeze up before attempting to fly.  The past few years the 
snow has hampered my attempts but I really haven't tried that hard to get out 
there.  In the spring my runway becomes my boat pond.
