I have some questions with this photo. First, was the tks primed and on when you flew through it? Also, this doesn't appear to be freezing rain and it appears to be rime icing. Freezing rain is severe icing and ends up being clear ice eventually, right? Anyways, I don't think this looks severe at all unless that leading edge formed and the tks couldn't keep up.

Your feedback would be appreciated

Looks like cocktail hour (although I prefer whiskey and rum neat.....)

Hi CAV, is the idea that you will pick the most exciting or original photo - or is it kind of a lottery drawing where any nice photo enters the lottery?

It's not clutter. Many of us would like to know how, with TKS, you got that accumulation.

Soo...rry!! your picture does not qualify. You need to be seated on the TKS and residing in the US.

If you look at the landing light section on the wing (no TKS here) it looks that there was more ice before. Unlike boots that removes ice right away TKS is more for ice prevention. Once the TKS micro holes are plugged with ice it takes time to remove the ice.
