The Cessna Model 208 and 208B Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) and
FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)Supplement S1 "Known Icing
Euipment" begs to differ.

I will have to check my copy of it if and when I ever manage to get
back to the office. That is, after we get the flood water out of the
house and the roads are clear. :-)

Yea, looks like the whole Northwest is a mess.

Well, we at least have one lane open into town, now. Great. I need
garden hose, wading boots, another floor squeegee, and my pressure
washer repaired. I also need a new pair of pants. We also need to talk
to some carpet people, I suppose. The cedar paneling in my office is
shot, too. And -- I still have Christmas shopping to do. Probably do
that online. We also have a contractor coming tomorrow with his Bobcat
to clear the remaining silt off the driveway and start excavating the
lawn.


I could have sworn that it was not certified for known ice.

Yours might not be properly equipped for known icing (it aparantly is
a factory/aftermarket option), but the type is. There are references
to FIKI in the TCDS.

I wish I actually had a Caravan. I was seriously considering one a few
years ago.
