Good stuff, Dick...thank you! I was looking forward to seeing how you handled the ice. Maybe a future video?

You have so much expertise and your student is clearly not at the same level. I wish you were asking him questions that would help him to learn to interpret all those sophisticated weather tools. If I was your student in this scenario, I would have been very impressed with your capabilities but I would be unable to replicate your analysis later.

Hi Daniel, Thank you for your comment. There is a great deal of post flight preparation and post flight debriefing that is not in this short video. Sorry you missed it. Fly Safely - Train Often .. DR

Dick, you stopped the video just when it was getting good. Could you post the rest of the video and talk about how you should have deviated to left earlier? We all want to learn and no judgement here.

Hi, I think the battery died at a bad time, but in answer to your question. We always plan for airframe ice by limiting our exposure to light ice only using the CIP/FIP in the vertical profile on Foreflight prior to the flight. In this case the preflight brief allowed us to know we would likely be ice free just 2k feet below. Check out the playlist on airframe ice on my channel. Fly Safely - Train Often .. DR
