Default Photos of Ice on the wings of a Crj 200

I took some pictures of some ice accumulation on the wings if a
Crj-200. Its a good example of how well the wing anti-icing works on
the Crj-200. After seeing how much ice was picked up, I was surprised
that there was no icing in the tail at all.

Go to http://www.southernflying.com to see the photos.

I like the leading edge / tip photo where you can see "here endeth the
anti-ice..."

Thanks.

Very good pics, as Capt. Thorpe pointed out, the photo gave me a
better idea of what/how the anti-ice stuff worked. Good job for
sharing.

The efficiency of the anti-icing features is impressive.

Did the aircraft behave differently with this amount of ice, or were the
effects unnoticeable?


I think that answer is rather obvious.

*How long were you in icing conditions? *What actions
did you take (if any) to avoid or escape the icing conditions?


Looks like he turned on the anti-ice stuff. Again, fairly obvious.

There way no changes in performance. Picked up the ice descending
throught 4000 ft to 3000 ft in just a few min on approach.
