If you go with the enclosure, look into an automated solar heater. You'll be surprised how much it slows the spring warm up ....

That hasn't made into our dispatcher's cross check yet.  We still have to ask via ACARS when we want it.  I'm ok with that.  Between the ETOPS stuff, re-dispatch ops and occasional updates on enroute SIGMETs, I hear from them enough as it is. 

On another ATIS note..... anyone got any good zingers for the guy who gets ATIS via ACARS at the top of climb, 20 minutes after takeoff on a 12+ hour flight?

He's building SA.  It's like reviewing the seasonal precipitation amounts on the Jepp 19-02.
