ok, so in my own head, I can live with what I believe to be the NTSB's definiton/interpertation of known icing.... temps 2 to -10 in visiable moisture. My next question involves flying that same unequipped aircraft on a precipitation free day clear of clouds while an icing airmet is issued for surface to 10 covering all of michigan (where i fly). Can I legally fly? Just the other day Im looking outside at scattered clouds 4000-5000, while an icing airmet is out for surface to 10. Am I legal to fly? If not there certainly are a lot of illegals flying around

I know GA flying is limited to some extent in the winter but If I cant fly with an icing airmet out, while staying clear of clouds/moisture, I cant fly in the winter period. Theres always an airmet covering michigan in the winter! All responses, apprecitiated as always.
