Is there any icing at all now?

Featured Replies

We seem to have gone from one extreme to the other.  From loads of icing to nothing.  Or could it be down to me flying the freeware A330?  Are you guys getting any icing at all?

It's there for sure.

Experienced it consistently in two of my recent dc-6 flights, under conditions that were prone to ice accretion....

Not where I have been flying but I am flying GA and at the altitudes I fly and this time of year where I fly, icing conditions do not exist. But there is plenty of thunder, even when not in the presence of any convective weather, and even with lightening turned off in the options.

Haven't seen any icing since SU5, but haven't been expecting any below 10k in the summer.  Will set up some icing conditions later and check.

I think I may have started to ice up once, but immediately descended before it got out of hand (before, once you had iced up, you stayed iced up).
