Snow-covered airplane by Andrew Gideon
So what do we do with a snow-covered airplane to fly it? The snow pushes off easily enough, so none of it appears to be stuck ice. Is it enough to push it off with a broom, or should I have the FBO give it some de-ice as well? Silly question, I know, but I've never done this...

max altitude deviation before bust? by Magnus
I thought it was +/- 200 feet before you've violated if you are flying IFR, but someone just told me it's a 100 feet, which seems a little steep considering they use 1000 feet separations.

flying in snow by Teacherjh
In a typical spam can (say an archer), which has no deice at all (save pitot heat), is it safe to fly in snow? More generally, of course the snow will bounce off and not stick to the wings (right?) but what about the clouds that are producing snow - will they also produce airframe ice? If it's...
