Season 1, Episode 16

If you're not from a snowy part of the world, ice may not be a familiar sight to you, except at altitude; however, the rest of us need to know how to be safe in icing conditions whole flying. In this video George Allen from the Aeroventure Institute and I almost get stuck in the middle of New Hampshire when we find our plane frost covered. We were lucky enough to be at an airport with de-icing services, which saved the night.

Hey, did you guys know that the FAA actually certifies flight instructors to tell you everything that I try to convey in these videos? You should definitely talk to one of them instead of trusting some video you found on the internet, because who am I to tell you how to fly? I'm just a pilot sharing my experiences with the world, and these videos are not meant to be instructional or advisory in any respect.
