December 13, 20205 yr Having time in the TBM 850 in icing: primarily weather radar radome on that left wing will have ice accumulation. If below freezing on the ground it will still be present on the prop tip (more rarely) and radome for sure when you shut down. There have been a couple prominent accidents when (earlier models) got overwhelmed in severe icing and crashed climbing out. Edited December 13, 20205 yr by Flyfaster_MTN002 SAR Pilot.
