Abstract

Verbatim from NASA NTRS. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

With the possible exception of tailplane-ice hazards, understanding of aircraft icing processes and their performance penalties and hazards has not changed fundamentally in 40-50 years. A survey is presently conducted of the aircraft design criteria, ice-detection and deicing hardware, and flight procedures, that have been developed to cope with icing phenomena. Attention is given to pilot icing conditions flight-training requirements, which are essential for the recognition of icing situations requiring corrective action.
