Namely, exit icing conditions when they are encountered. I like the idea of required pilot actions. If you wait until you can no longer maintain 120 KIAS in a Caravan in icing conditions, you’re probably already in trouble.

As I’ve said before, I’ll be interested to see how Transport Canada, the FAA, and Cessna respond.
