![]() "Jim Burns" wrote in message ... Thank you for pointing this out. The "visable moisture" requirement is for in-flight icing, not frost. Temp/Dewpoint at TEB yesterday morning was M04/M08. Obviously the "collecting surface" was below freezing and the temp dewpoint spread was narrow enough for the humidity to sublimate and create frost on the wings. Jim Sounds like we're closing in on an answer, or at the very least reasonably informed speculation. |

Nothing wrong with speculations, but why limit it to a narrow area? |
