This being said, there were no big issue with icing during the hot summer of BoB (maybe one or two poor souls lost into a thunderstorm), so OM has still some time to think about it!
I beg to differ. From reading various accounts by pilots, ice was a regular problem when on long patrols (particularly in the early stages of battle). Trust me, no matter about the summer time it was bloody cold at over 20000 feet!
