Formation: you've cheered me up no end this evening. You obviously have much more experience then I do, but it's pleasing to know I've come to the very same conclusions/arguments over this as you have, using just plain old common sense (on my part)

I totally agree about being aware of icing at ANY time. That we can teach without thinking why. And that for the anecdotal evidence ive seen here and before, that landing carb hot for the sake of 1/2 sec of go-around at 95% power as you go cold is better than losing that oPtion all together.

Perhaps we need to live in a world where the schools canvas the staff on the how-to's rather than leave it to 1 person to formulate (the CFI) - just a thought.
