You know how much I wish I was there to help.

I just got home. While I was gone it looks like we got 8-10 inches of snow followed by about 1/4 inch of ice and then the whole thing froze solid. I just spent an hour on the driveway and it isn't

So I fly at 27C alot and it's 80% humidity much of the time. That's a 20C dew point. On the graph, I'm in the "Serious Icing" virtually all the time! Am I the only Q pilot with a humidity gauge on my

Also, FYI, Ben Ellison made some videos of his TBI and at the 4m46s point you can see ice formation in a carburettor here; https://youtu.be/4szv3ZBSJjw --

Updraft, downdraft, - it doesn’t matter. What matters is the relative humidity and air temperature, combined with the carburettors venturi effect and the LHE of the fuel, as below; --

Good points, Bill. I wonder if the EZ’s are not more prone to icing due to the updraft cooling, which puts the coolest air in the bottom half of the cowl? Your thoughts? Cheers, Jay

Martin, Where did your Tri-Q end up? Cheers, Jay
