Just wondering where you fly Greg? Snow is a fact of life in the north.
We have had at our airport (3CK) a couple of people slide off the runway
when there is blowing snow and/or some ice.
The snow removal crews do the best they can (better than the roads) but we
still deal with slippery runways during the winter. In these conditions you
really learn that the flight does not end until the engine is shut down.
Dontcha just love being blown sideways on a cold windy evening when the
melted snow from the daytime sun has refrozen into a continuous sheet
of ice across the taxiway?
