Lewis Rodert pioneered aircraft anti-icing research at NACA and developed one of the first successful thermal de-icing ...

The myth "speed saves" in icing is debunked because while higher speed helps wings fly, it can lead to uncontrollable descents and critically impaired forward visibility, making safe landings ...

Icing, especially from supercooled liquid water, is a significant and often misunderstood aviation hazard, even among experienced pilots, necessitating a thorough review of its meteorological causes.

Turbulence and icing are dangerous situations frequently encountered in flight. It is useful to detect them to enable pilots to adapt flight, to estimate aircraft structural fatigue or to design ...
