safetypee - ice crystals..
well aware of the ice crystal - engine compressor icing debate..
would like to throw the following into the debate..
the weather has not changed that much in the last 50 years..
let's assume the atmospheric conditions described in these phenomena have been around for a long while..
Question: Could it be that we all are too cozy with all the new technology nowadays and fly closer to storms more often than in earlier times..???!!!
