Here's a question for you guys that nobody at my flight school can seem to answer:
What is different about the Warrior versus a C152 or C172 that makes it less susceptable to carb icing? I mean, the green arc on the Warrior's tach goes from basically idle all the way to red line. Yes, it has carb heat, but it's not really used much during normal operations. I'm assuming this is due to some difference in the systems that makes the Warrior less likely to pick up carb ice, but none of us can figure out what it is... I was hoping somebody here might know???
