A few years ago, I got the bug to fly small airplanes again. I trained for a few weeks at a local flight school, then rented a Cessna 172 to fly with my family. We fly our new-to-us Piper to Florida often (the airplane could probably find Orlando on its own), and we agreed it was time for something more adventurous.

Thorough pre-flight planning and continuous weather monitoring help mitigate icing risks. Understanding Icing Conditions in IFR Icing refers to the buildup of ice on aircraft surfaces while in flight. Knowing these classifications will allow you to make well-informed decisions when flight planning and while in the air.

Density Altitude = Pressure Altitude + [120 x (OAT – Standard Temperature)] For example, the temperature at a pressure altitude of 5,000ft is 7C. Note: OAT and ISA Standard Temperature should be in degrees Celsius. Thorough pre-flight planning and performance calculations will ensure your aircraft can perform on a particular day.
