A block of ice of the magnitude shown on TV would not improve the flying qualities of a wing ... I assume that any such block could not be formed except near some outlet on the fuselage or at a junction between the fuselage and a flying surface. Yes, well I always wondered whether these meteors should be on the meteorology newsgroup. Maybe pilots would know know more about it. Are there any condensation outlets on planes which form 5kg icicles near them? Maybe some formation flyers would have seen them. When do they drop off? |
