What I meant to say was that in 18 years of flying, he may have never really thought of this situation as being a problem
It also brought to my mind the thought that wheel pants ( not in his situation) and other items may allow for ice build up from splashing water on the taxiways. Or in other words, it refreshes our minds to remember that winter flying brings with it additional things to consider other then just how to stay warm when we fly. Not sure if I am getting my point across but what I am trying to say that I was glad I read this because it made me think.
