In-flight icing is one of the most difficult aviation weather hazards facing general aviation. Because most aircraft in the general aviation category are not certified for flight into known icing conditions, techniques for identifying and avoiding in-flight ice are important to maintain safety while increasing the utility and dispatch capability which is part of the AGATE vision. This report summarizes a brief study effort which (1) Reviewed current ice identification, forecasting, and avoidance techniques (2) Assessed feasibility of improved forecasting and ice avoidance procedures and (3) Identified key issues for the development of improved capability with regard to in-flight icing. |
