An overly warm FD due to a MEL'd pack (on your specific airplane) may not be the end of the world, but safe pilots don't need those distractions. Even with one pack (left, of course), does the FD become comfortable once you reach FL100 or 150? While discussion of some MEL'd 'Environmental Comfort' items might be considered a bit too much whining, you've got my sincere empathy when prosecuting a Critical Phase on a flight deck that measures 95F+. I think I'd rather my pilots be 'cool,' as well as calm and collected. Sometimes it really should be, "Pilots First." I sure hope your airline gets their airplanes (especially the 'Packs') fixed ad the hot season in your region has just begun... Best wishes and may cooler heads prevail. -C.cedarglennoreply@blogger.com
