You have presented NO evidence that a properly prepared pilot is capable of safe flight through icing conditions. You have just proved that those who are stupid are capable of getting themselves into trouble.
OK? Bose-X, I'm not following you. I never said a properly prepared pilot could do that. I was trying to say we shouldn't and especially not without the gear for it. I think there are others here who say they can and do because they know how to. But it seems I am the only one who believes limitations in an AFM are meant to be followed, as well as regulations.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. What old wives tales are you referring to and are you suggesting that I should tell my students that they can climb through an ice condition with their PA28 provided they're not stupid enough to do it?
