Just a couple of days ago I watched a Cessna Skylane depart into widespread low ceilings and sleet, with the temperature well below freezing. Apparently he made it wherever he was going, but ATC was full of moderate icing reports from King Airs and up. You've just got to wonder what in hell was so important that our intrepid pilot HAD to depart into the worst kind of winter conditions. Freight dog? I've seen those guys arrive and depart in weather that I wouldn't want to *drive* in, let alone fly. -- Dan C172RG at BFM
