Ice Is NOT Nice Part 1 provided an in-depth discussion surrounding the factors associated with structural icing to promote situational awareness. Approx Duration: 1 hrs. and 52 Min. Now it's time to apply this training to a real flight environment using a scenario-based approach. Over a dozen cases were surveyed for Ice Is NOT Nice Part 2. Out of those cases, three scenarios were chosen that represented very typical icing environments in three different parts of the U.S. The three modules are focused on post-cold frontal icing - the most common form of icing that a pilot will typically face during the cold season. - Module 1 - Proposed flight from Springfield, Illinois to
Williamsport, Pennsylvania in November 2007 - Module 2 - Proposed flight from Austin, Texas to Abilene,
Texas in March 2008 - Module 3 - Proposed flight from Astoria, Oregon to Eugene,
Oregon in March 2008 Meteorologist and icing expert, Ben C. Bernstein, does the primary analysis and narration for the three scenarios developed in Ice Is NOT Nice Part 2. All of the charts, diagrams, maps and text presented were captured off the Internet using real weather data and forecast guidance.
