Every year pilots either injure or seriously scare themselves by venturing into icing conditions. Our area of the country is the worst for these conditions (just east of those large lakes)!
Featured speaker David Parkins (FAA Designated Engineering Representative DER) has been testing and advising airframe icing for 20 years and brings a wealth of real flight knowledge to this seminar. In addition to being an icing researcher he is an active instrument-rated pilot who owns and flies a Cherokee Six out of Ithaca. Bring your questions and learn how to fly safely all winter.
