She got control of an airplane that sounded like it was a flying ice cube
in IMC -- I hope I can do as well in similiar circumstances.


It sounded like she got the hell scarred out of her. Autopilot issue? Ice?
Upper level wind sheer? Caravan icing issues? Two of the four? Even one of
the four...

She fought for control, maintained the altitude where she regained control,
disengaged the auto-pilot, quickly ran through dozens of (off radio) checks,
activated boots and heat, then descended below the freezing level.

It sounded to me like she was using 20% of her mental capacity to
communicate with ATC, while the other 80% was still darting about, searching
for answers - or making sure all was well.

Great job! Based on what I heard, I'd fly with her.
