Doesn't look like all Caravans have ice protection installed...

Just looked up the TCDS:
"Compliance with ice protection has been demonstrated in accordance with § 23.1419 when ice
protection equipment is installed in accordance with the airplane equipment list and is operated per
the Pilot's Operating Handbook and FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual."

Which, as I said a long time ago, is a different argument than the
original poster which said the TYPE is not certified for known icing.
I asked whether they meant the specific crash aircraft wasn't properly
equipped, or whether they really were trying to say the Caravan type
wasn't certified, and we went down the rathole of people asserting,
contrary to facts presented, that the type isn't certified. The type
is clearly certified, and aircraft within are permitted when equipped
per the supplement S2, "Known Icing Equipment".
