When to use pitot heat ?
When are you supposed to use pitot/static heat ? or when do others use it ?
- always in IMC ?
- always. including day VMC ?
- always at night ?
- icing conditons only (your definition of it is) ?
- always above freezing level (including VMC) ?
- anytime in visible moisture (rain/cloud), even with high outside temperature (ie 25 C) ?
- anytime in visible mositure in temperatures below about +10C ?
I am interested to hear other people's thoughts.
Thanks.
