"O. Sami Saydjari" wrote in message ... This seems odd. Why do you suppose the standards are different for IFR and VFR ("moderate" vs "light or moderate)? Icing affects a pilots ability to control the aircraft, so I do not see how instrument training allows one to venture into worse conditions. VFR pilots are less likely to fly (legally) in to precip or clouds. You got to have mositure to form ice. So, if there is an airmet for "light icing", then it is legal for an IFR pilot to enter the clouds (of course, on a valid IFR flight plan)? It's illegal for him to operate IFR period.
