In flight what is considered ‘icing conditions’?
Icing conditions exist in flight at a TAT of 10°C (50°F) or below, and visible moisture in any form is present (such as clouds, rain, snow, sleet, and ice crystals), except when the SAT is −40°C (−40°F) or below.

5 degrees or less in visible moisture is present (vis 1,500m or less) and/or standing water/slush present.
In flight, when must the wing anti-ice system be selected to ON or AUTO?
- When in icing conditions.
- When ICE is annunciated by the ice detection system.
When must the wing anti-ice be selected OFF.
- Above 35,000 ft
- When TAT is above 15 degrees
