Neat strip guys but I was wishing I had one a few weeks ago when I was passing through Illinois---the measly little Cessna heater was only keeping my toes warm so I was wearing all the clothes I had with me and my neck was getting severely chaffed from the collars on my coat, flightsuit, and shirt----I already looked ridiculous but sometimes pain overcomes pride! :'(
