After work I sat at 8,000 ft and watched the orange sun go down. Blue sky. Everything was blue, even my wing except where the sunlight hit. That was orange. The airplane is blue and orange. No camera. The batteries would be dead anyway.
When the last sliver of sun disappeared I considered making it rise again, but my temps were strangely high. Ambient temp was colder than ever. 32 deg. And I’m just poking along at 110 kts climbing slowly. Oil temp was 220 deg! Why?! Time to go down. We could have used a quart of oil, could that be it? Or do we get poor cooling when cruising slowly?
