Nasa Icing courses

I disagree; have you hung around the airport, early in the morning,
on a gorgeous winter day, perfect VFR day, but very cold and all the
aircraft on the ramp have frost or ice on them? you wouldn't believe
the number of folks who don't understand that just brushing off the
worst of it is not good enough...

How is that a disagreement with what I wrote?

My point was not to enumerate all the things a primary student needs to know
about icing. It was simply to point out they don't need to know much, and
regardless the original post was off-topic in r.a.student, no matter HOW
much they need to learn about icing.

The same logic that asserts the original post was on-topic in r.a.student
leads to the conclusion that ANY post that is on-topic in r.a.piloting or
r.a.ifr is on-topic in r.a.student. Clearly that conclusion is false, so by
way of the contradiction so is the logic that led to the conclusion.

you said, and I quote:

"...a primary student's knowledge of icing need not extend
much further than "don't fly when freezing rain is forecast"..."


That was the specific statement of yours with which I do disagree.

I did illustrate my point with a very specific and real life
example where a primary student's knowledge of icing DOES indeed
need to extend further than don't fly when freezing rain is
forecast.

Don't be so defensive, I was not attacking your beloved
windows operating system! :-)

Your reply illustrated no such disagreement. My statement and yours are not
mutually exclusive.

I never said that it doesn't.

I am of the opinion that no operating system is "beloved". Operating
systems are a stupid way to waste an emotion like love. How that pertains
to this thread at all, I have no idea.
