...and yet again... Two 737's, operated by a large European LCC took off today, one with roughly 6-8 square meters of 2 mm + coarse ice on the right wing, and the other with 2 mm + coarse ice covering about 50% of the fueltanks on both wings (RASN on coldsoaked wings in both cases)...
Both crews decided that it was just water, without performing a tactile check, even though ladder was provided. When informed that there was in fact ice on the wings, they simply denied it, claiming it was water...
