I am amazed at the number of folks in the UK say they have never/seldom experienced carb icing. Must be the global warming.

The worst I have experienced was in a Cherokee 6 250 (on one particular day). In VMC I had to leave the carb heat on.

You are almost guaranteed to get it in a Warrior after start on wet grass.

I am sure a lot of people get carb ice and don't know. Probably the same ones who don't know the difference between a carb hot air check and a check for carb ice.

D.O.
