Try landing a Pitts, Eagle, Mustang or Extra. Forward visibility is
non-existent in the landing attitude. However, even a little ice on the
airframe could or will significantly increase the stall speed. Aerodynamics
are probably more a factor with icing than decreased visibility. Running off
the side or end of the runway is probably a lot more survivable than doing a
stall/spin in the pattern.
