Meester Skadi (nearly) hits the nail on the head. With the Seahawk we're supposed to be able to fly in trace or light icing...trouble is we don't have any way of measuring ice accretion (accretion meter)..so really a meaningless statement in the flight manual...however, accretion meter is something thats in the works.

Cheers for all the input.
