Default Icing in the scan...

Man... seeing the slightest trace of ice, I don't see how you could
pay attention to anything else!


I scan once every minute or so during icing conditions, but in fair
disclosure I use my AP to handle most of the climb and cruise portions of
the flight anyhow, which frees me to monitor ice formation.

The minute I see a trace of ice forming, I run through my options for
escaping it.
