Ok. Here's the question. What is your definition of visible moisture? I just got corrected in the sim because I did not use engine anti-ice.
Conditions were: Visibility of 3sm, temp of +5C, ceiling of about 3000', no precipitation reported. I was shooting a circling approach and had good visual on the runway.
Manufacturer recomendations are to use cowl anti-ice when temps are <+8C and in visible moisture.
I told them I thought the definition of visible moisture was <1sm visibility. Am I wrong? And do you know where to get the FAA or AIM definition?
Under their theory I could not be in a C-172 and fly that day even though it was VFR.
