How does ice form on an aircraft?
Ice forms with the water vapor or rain comes in contact with the aircraft's aluminum skin. The ice usually forms on the leading edges of wings. Ice can also form when the air flow accelerates over the wing, which reduces the pressure of the air. This is the same phenomena that causes vapor trails or the trails the aircraft makes at high altitudes. Many modern jet liners have heaters in the leading edge of the wing that will melt the ice as it forms. Helicopters also can have ice form on the leading edges of their rotors. They also have leading edge heaters.
