Required only for those airplanes authorized for operations in known icing conditions.
Procedure: With the simulator airborne, in a clean configuration, nominal altitude and cruise 

airspeed, autopilot on and auto-throttles off, engine and airfoil anti-ice/de-ice systems deacti-
vated; activate icing conditions at a rate that allows monitoring of simulator and systems re-
sponse. Icing recognition will include an increase in gross weight, airspeed decay, change in 
simulator pitch attitude, change in engine performance indications (other than due to air-
speed changes), and change in data from pitot/static system. Activate heating, anti-ice, or 
de-ice systems independently. Recognition will include proper effects of these systems, 
eventually returning the simulated airplane to normal flight.
