And for those who do not have a healthy respect for airframe icing, listen to the following recording from my site videos.
A number of safety institutions now use this recording as part of their training.
This was not a low time pilot either but a very experienced ferry pilot who I believe is also no longer with us although she survived this encounter.
I can only imagine that she wasnt thinking straight due to the close shave she had experienced but some of her subsequent decision making left much to be desired.
