Wrong Pace.

Wet mushy stuff did stick.
Gasax sorry I am not wrong you explain to me scientifically how wet mushy stuff can stick unless the temp is at such a level to create icing.

You are missing the point completely. You will get ice build ups in visible moisture when the temperature hits freezing. At that point the visible moisture changes to ice and attaches it to the airframe.

Your wet mushy stuff is no different to visible moisture. You may have had what you percieved as wet mushy stuff sticking to the airframe but it WILL BE because the temp has hit a level conducive to icing so no different to flying in visible moisture.
