Perhaps you can explain why United Air Lines, whose airplanes are dark gray, have to run their A/C packs at high capacity on the ground in my desert city, while Delta airplanes which are white can run them at a lower setting, and American Airlines, whose planes are silver, can sometimes get by just running one pack?

Cool! (Um...pun intended...) I didn't know that, but, yeah, it makes perfect sense.
If their air conditioners failed...the three planes would get hot inside...at different rates...
Can I presume the same would be true on a cold (windless) day in Chicago, under a weak and pallid sun, if the planes' heaters failed? All three planes would get cold inside...at different rates?
Now, the next trick is to get those three airplanes into orbit...
Grin!
