The 146 has been limited to FL260 in icing for sometime, if we go higher and encounter icing we have to descend. Since the routes we fly are never that far, it doesn't hinder the flight too much. It does slow the climb when we have all the anti ice on, this gives extra time to eat those lovely crew meals!
