Default Iced up Cirrus descends by BRS

Wallace,

it took off
out of Birmingham and iced up climbing through clouds, stalled, and the
pilot popped the BRS. Came down in a tree.


And they posted a pirep while hanging from the chute, according to Avweb:
PIREP: MGM UUA /OV SCD 270004/TM 2200/FL090/TP SR22/IC SVR ICG 077-090/RM
ACFT WAS DESCENDING BY PARACHUTE DUE TO SEVRE ICG BUILDUP.

Kinda cool...
