Beautiful footage dj_dread!  Also, spot-on info.
Something that people don't think about in cold weather:
The Spark AC fan is pulling that super cold air across the components inside.  So if there is a temperature sensitive component there could be trouble.  Also, Moving cold, moist air across warm electronics is going to make the moisture condense out and make those components wet.

Just some thoughts...

I've absolutely succesfully flown in -15°C in Carpathians last December.
If it would be ineresting, take a look on my shot video from there.
