13. ABSTRACT (Maximum200 words) The effects of tailplane icing were investigated in a four-year NASA,'FAA Tailplane Icing Program (TIP). This research program was developed to improve the understanding of iced tailplane aeroperformance and aircraft aerodynamics, and to develop design and training aides to help reduce the number of incidents and accidents caused by tailplane icing. To do this, the TIP was constructed with elements that included icing wind tunnel testing, dry-air aerodynamic wind tunnel testing, flight tests, and analytical code development. This paper pro/ides an overview of the entire program demonstrat- ing the interconnectivity of the program elements and reports on cur 'ent accomplishments.
