Bit harsh on Rubik101 .....maybe he is struggling with the concept of a regulation which means that the crew have to make the assesment as to when those supercooled droplets, coating anything that moves (or otherwise), are in fact light or medium freezing rain.

Very sensibly our company's Part A makes a clear statement that we are not to operate in freezing precipitation. In fact they even removed -FZRA from the published holdover tables. That avoids some poor fool making a bad call as to whether it's light or medium, under the inevitable commercial pressure, when he is trying to decide if he should give it a crack.......
