Not a dumb question.

It can be over 30 degrees cooler up there, 60 degree day it can be freezing up there.

I went on a hot sunny day, cockpit had good ventilation (a Raven), I was too excited to be hot or cold.

The original poster will know more.

If they offer you a heavy coat and mittens TAKE THEM. My friend went a few years after I did on a cool fall day and froze his butt off and got sick for a while after because he refused the extra clothing.

Is it one degree cooler for every 1,000 feet?
