The purpose of this paper is to provide the reader with an overview of aircraft icing and the problems associated with this phenomenon, and to review current information on relevant topics such as meteorology, new products, icing accidents, safety recommendations, and airworthiness directives.
Conditions conducive to aircraft icing may exist in two locations: (1) on the ground prior to departure and (2) in the air after departure. Each location presents a unique scenario which the pilot in command ("PIC") must recognize, evaluate and deal with responsibly. The PIC bears the ultimate responsibility of ensuring that the aircraft can be operated safely. Therefore, especially in weather conditions conducive to icing, safety begins with the PIC's pre-flight actions.
