IRT
If the aircraft is not approved for flying in known/forecast icing conditions and you enter cloud and ice appears.........then you need to question the competence of the aircraft commander.
Had this test been conducted in the UK with the CAA, then I would not be surprised if the candidate would have failed the flight test without turning a prop.
You have to question the QUALITY of the training were this to be true.
Simple Q : is the aircraft cleared to fly in icing conditions? Yes or No
Then if YES, is it cleared for LIGHT ICING and/or MODERATE ICING ?
Then consult the forecast,and receive actual reports if available.
Risking icing is VERY COURAGEOUS, when not approved
