Flight experts angered by icing rules

comp –>WASHINGTN — A gap in federal regulations allows turboprop planes to be flown without ever being certified as safe in the most dangerous icy conditions — a fact that has enraged flight safety experts for more than a decade and that’s drawing new attention in light of the crash of Flight 3407. While federal officials say icing is just one of many factors they are examining in the wake of the crash which killed 50 people the night of Feb. 12 some pilots and other aviation experts are convinced icing played a role. More than a few are angry about what they see as the Federal Aviation Administration’s industry-influenced inattention to a grave danger for turboprop planes like the one that crashed in Clarence: “Supercooled large droplet icing” or freezing rain that sticks to the plane. After a similar accident in Roselawn Ind. in 1994 “we stood tall and said this should never have happened and should never happen again” said Stephen A. Frederick a retired pilot who wrote “Unheeded Warning” a book about that crash.
