CAB Report on AAT Crash West of Fish Haven Idaho
The report discusses a 1953 AAT crash west of Fish Haven Idaho on January 7. It details potential cloud tops over mountains between Malad City and Bear Lake and likely icing conditions, turbulence, and poor visibility that could drive an involuntary descent and flight path deviations. It notes icing risks, alcohol use for carburetors and propellers, and ice observed on a de icing boot five days after the crash, suggesting the ice formed during descent.
