good tape.   What would you have done and w= hen?
It's a turbine with tons of climb power and boots and you've seen m= oderate ice before.

a) stayed below IMC
b= ) not entered IMC until you were guaranteed a continuous climb to fl200
c) accept clearance as given accident pilot and then violate clearance= and continue climbing once icing got beyond light, declare emergency <= /div>
d) descend as soon as you saw ice
e) something else

HI THERE

i came across this AOPA report on a TBM that crashed 1= 7 minutes after taking off from TETERBORO

i remember the news report.=

in many ways a TBM performance envelop is similar to our LNC4; admit= tedly not many Lancair aircraft <= /span>
have full de-ice equipment, but we could easily find ourselves in a= similar situation.

FIVE MINUTES INTO THE ICING, and the plane is out= of control
