Re: AIRMET Zulu: regulatory or advisory?
I think you'd be pretty nuts to even go into any kind of visible moisture on purpose with an airmet for icing issued anyway. I'm pretty sure anyway you slice it, you're in trouble if you encounter ice and have problems in an area with an airmet z issued.
I look at them kind of like the AIM. The AIM isn't regulatory, but if you go against the information in it and mess up, you get the lovely "careless and reckless operation" catch all violation.
