Abstract
The weather conditions associated with the jet engine damage due to weather conditions, are discussed. It was observed that the actual weather condition during the time period when the engine engine damage occurred was mostly freezing drizzle rather than snow and mist. Since the official weather observations did not indicate heavy freezing drizzle, the procedure to shed ice accumulation was not implemented. The hazard occurred at a variety of temperatures indicating that it is not only a cold temperature phenomenon.
