Abstract:

Presentations were given in the fields of flight testing, icing protection systems, flight operations in icing, and icing test facilities. Problem areas found to be common were icing of engine inlets, rotors, and windshields. Many varied approaches to solution of these problem areas were exchanged among the attendees which made the symposium a success. This summary report is prepared in three volumes. Volume I includes the symposium opening remarks, papers presented, and discussion in Session I. Sessions II and III papers and discussion are included in Volume II. The closing remarks, presentations, and discussion during Sessions IV and V are contained in Volume III.
