I am pretty meticulous about preheating before I fly (Reiff system on the -10).
I'm planning a trip where I likely won't have hangar space on the other end for a few days. No precip forecast, but night temps are looking like 25-30F or so, with forecast highs on departure day of 48F.
I don't think I'll be able to plug in (looking into that now).
On a 48F day (likely sunny - at least in the forecast), how long does it take a 25-30F engine to warm enough to not be cold soaked? I am not planning on leaving until early afternoon.
Probably overthinking this, but interested in how others handle winter travel.
I am flying solo, so I could possibly throw in the 2kW generator and use that to preheat
