My position utilizes the easily accessible manuals that the company created and the FAA approved, and as such, clearly(or not so), defines the Ground Deicing Program. Push this stuff to the limits and one might be a future training bulletin.
How many GA/91 turbine crashes this years winter season due to icing?
I'm not saying I never deice. I'm saying that it is possible for there to be frozen precipitation falling and it not adhere to the aircraft. Whether it melts on contact as it does when the base of the clouds are below freezing and the ground above or if it is a trace of dry snow that spits and leaves the aircraft without contamination, it is possible.
