hello

Great plane i really love it. Just one quick question. Is DHC 3 otter designed to fly in icing condtitions and if so where and what is the de ice device on the plane? Cant seem to find it or is it the carbo heat meant to do that on dhc 3. I notice when flying in icing condtitions i start to loose lift (air flow) and speed. Please need some advice.

Thank you and merry new year

Luka

The DHC-3 is not certified or equipped for flight into known icing.
