Maybe a 737-200 doesn't fit your description ??
Correct, not a large heavy jet.

So add a few extra knots on your approach or pay the price like they did in Midway.
Recent Southwest, perhaps?
If so, airframe icing was not their problem, poor procedures and an inability to actually appreciate the runway conditions...was.
