Old Smokey,

Thanks for such a quick response. I guessed that might be the case.

I know we just added a generic 10 kts to the final approach speed when I was flying larger planes. I have been thinking about what if I had to go around, now that I have seen the accumulation of ice that I have knocked off the leading edges after I land. I suppose I'll just proceed with lots of caution.

The plane does have boots, and they do have some effect, but nothing to get too excited about.....
