Severe icing may result from environmental conditions outside uf those for which the airplane is certified. Flight in freezing rain, freezing drizale, or mixed icing conditions (supercooled liguid water and ice crystals) may result in ice build-up on protected surfaces exceeding the capability of the ice protection system, or may result in ice forming aft of the protected surfaces. This ice may not be shed using the ice protection systems, and may seriously degrade the performance and controllability ofthe airplane, During flight, severe icing conditions that exceed those for which the airplane is certificated shall be determined by the following visual eves. If one ‘or mote of these visual cues exists, immediately request priority handling from Air Traffic Control to facilitate a route or an altitude change to exit the icing conditions ‘Unusually extensive ice accumulation on the airframe and windshield in areas not normally observed to collect ice. ‘Accumulation of ice on the upper surface ofthe wing, aft ofthe protected ‘Accumulation of ice on the engine nacslles and propeller spinners farther aft than normally observed.
