Your weather briefing for the flight did not indicate the potential for icing, however, during the flight you begin to notice an accumulation of rime icing on the temperature probe. What actions should you take? Should you declare an emergency? Scenario ======== IFR is a terrific tool, but it comes with limitations that make it impractical (or impossible) to use in every situation where it might be handy. On a day and a flight where wildfire smoke and nearby mountains make visibility marginal, is VFR, IFR, or a combination of both the best solution for reaching the destination? 3 June 2025 1H0 Pilot Lounge 1830 CDT From members at stlaviationmeetup.org Sat Jun 7 10:46:06 2025 From: members at stlaviationmeetup.org (St. Louis Aviation Meetup Members List) Date: Sat, 7 Jun 2025 05:46:06 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [Members] [CE03137678] The Schiff Show - Think Right For A Safer Flight - FAASafety.gov (fwd) Message-ID: -- FAASafety.gov -------------------------------------------------------- You have asked us to notify you when a webinar is scheduled that meets your criteria.
