Title:
Managing the Hazards of Aircraft Icing
Topic:
Preparing for Winter Flying Challenge
Speaker(s):
Cris Dumont,FAASTeam Rep
Brief Description:
Aircraft icing during fight can be catastrophic. It disturbs the flow of air over the aircraft diminishing the wing''s maximum lift and propeller's thrust thus reducing the angle of attack for maximum lift, which in turn, adversely affects an aircraft's handling characteristics while significantly increasing drag.
During this 2 hour presentation, FAA Safety Team Rep Cris Dumont will discuss the formation and development of "ice" in the atmosphere, including the different types of ice formation on the structural surfaces of the aircraft. In addition,Cris will talk about stalling of both the wing and tail sections of the aircraft, along with other critical flight into known icing avoidance mitigation strategies.
