True, with all these low cost drones, kids dont learn to fly with anything "real" nomore :cry: In fact, many dont really go out to explore the nature or play ball in the garden - because of their mobile smartphones :( I dont like this trend - and am somewhat going along myself, but try not to use th...

I am amazed to see one vote from some who freezes without boots in 15 to 20 degrees, but this just shows how different we are

This is just for fun, to see how different we are around the world. At what temperatures, and below, do you put your boots, and gloves on?
