Must have been quite spectacular - but I bet you'd have been even more upset if you hadn't selected FULL and then slid up to the end
Taxying (sp?) out in a VC8 at EDI one day we slid around the taxiway on freezing rain and advised ATC accordingly.
We then held at the runway for a BAC111 to land. BAC111 arrived and disappeared off towards far end where he advised ATC that braking action was poor. Poor chap hadn't been advised of our report.
