I'm not sure how serious the anti-icing would be....anti-icing consumes power, and he needs every foot-lb of torque (or whatever those Frenchy instruments indicate) he can squeeze out of it. He would probably choose to stay out of icing conditions. My guess, he's got electric heating on the pitot tubes, and electric and/or bleed air anti-ice on the engines. Oops, I meant engine. But, I'm sure VF will be on here sooner or later to provide a definitive answer.
