What's the latest on "forecast icing = known icing"
"Doug" wrote in message
oups.com... Just use the airmets. If there is an airmet for icing, you can't go. If there is no airmet, you might be able to go if conditions allow it. An airmet for icing consititutes forecast icing, not known icing, according to the AIM definition I cited. Of course, if there isn't a sound immediate escape option in the event that the forecast is right, the flight would be unsafe (in a plane that's not certified for known icing) and (incidentally) therefore illegal. --Gary
