"Developing flight simulators that incorporate the aerodynamic effects of icing will provide a critical element in pilot training programs by giving pilots a pre-exposure of icing-related hazards, such as ice-contaminated roll upset or tailplane stall. Integrating these effects into training flight simulators will provide an accurate representation of scenarios to develop pilot skills in unusual attitudes and loss-of-control events that may result from airframe icing." Source: From the NASA documentation saupporting the development of an Icing Encounter Flight Simulator at the NASA Glenn Research Center, documented in today's episode of Aero-TV.
