A contributing factor was the pilot's pre-flight decision to operate into an area of forecast moderate icing conditions in an aircraft not equipped with in-flight icing protection.","registration":"N55MB","state":"TN","summary":"Accident on December 26, 2006 at Jasper, TN: fatal, substantial damage (2 fatal).","type":"ACC"}],"num_engines":1,"other_names":"SIMON CARMEN","plain_english":"N55MB is a Cessna 182Q, a fixed-wing airplane with one motor with a piston engine, built in 1978.
