Kind of like the DC-9-10 series, eh? What, 5% of the DC-9-10 fleet crashed on take off because of wing contamination? Even more similar to the Fokker F-28 series, a similar size & weight aircraft (well, compared to a DC-9, anyway). Crashes at Dryden and La Guardia because of wing contamination. The Fokker report says that one 1mm ice particle per square centimeter of wing reduces lift coeficient by at least 22%. -- Aaron C.
