3.9.7.3 ATIS
When arriving at an airport, you can
listen to ATIS, an automatic broadcast of
information for arriving and departing
aircraft.
The Runway Condition Code is given as
three digits.
If the runway is uniformly covered, a single number may be provided for the
entire runway.
If three numbers are provided, they correspond to the runway with the smallest
runway number, with the numbers referring to.
For example, if it were EKHG, it would be runway 09, with the first digit referring
to the first third of runway 09, the second digit to the middle third, and the final
digit to the last third.
3.9.7.4 Symbols on weather charts
If you see these symbols on the
weather chart, be on alert, as you
risk getting ice on the wing leading
edges, intake, windshield, and
propeller.
Actually, on the entire aircraft, if you
fly in areas with negative
temperatures and the plane is
exposed to supercooled droplets.
