Any experience with snow melting on the acft (after you push it out of the hangar) and refreezing on it in flight.
No, but having landed in dry powder snow there was a liberal amount over the windscreen. Came back 30 mins later to find that it had melted due to the warmth of the screen, then quickly refrozen due to the sub zero temperatures. Allways cleared the screen after landing from then on.
