Hi all,
Just after input from others regarding operations in and around freezing levels etc.....
It's not often, but where I work in Oz, the freezing level can get down to around 4500 to 5000 ft. Our usual LSALT is 5900 ft, so I have found myself wondering if I can conduct our operations during these times.
The aircraft I fly is not certified for icing conditions......
So.....
Can I legally fly above the icing level?
Can I assume there is no risk of icing if there is no visible moisture?
Do I pull the pin on a job when the icing level gets down to 6000 ft.....?
Thanks for you input in advance.
Cheers
