I´ve seen ANS (a feeder for IB) take-off(with their CRJ-200´s) a lot of times out of Badajoz early morning with early-morning-frost all over the baby, without de-icing.....You may blame the spanish culture, but there haven´t been much incident/accidents.
Thats just crazy
There is probably not many aircraft more susceptible to ice than that high wing-loading non-slatted CRJ200
It seems that non-slatted jets get in trouble with ice/snow easier than their slatted big brothers. I guess that makes aerodynamic sense.
I can remember at least two F28 crashes, a C604 and a CRJ200. But I can’t really recall any with slatted jets.
