When Bumpy Flight shows a freezing-wings or wing-icing warning, keep the aircraft stable and read the exact prompt before fetching an item. A current walkthrough reports ordering or obtaining an Ice Scraper from the supply terminal and using it on the affected wing. That procedure is community-reported for the beta, so your live tool label and marker take priority.
Quick response: pilot holds a steady flight, engineer reads the warning, obtains the requested scraper or tool, follows the active target, waits for the warning to clear, and reports recovery.
Identify wing icing correctly
Do not react only to a cold visual effect. Confirm that the warning refers to the aircraft or wing. Community sources also discuss cold passenger needs, which belong to cabin care and may require a different response. Read the current objective, tool name, and target.
Say “wing ice” to the crew. This prevents the cabin player from treating a passenger and the engineer from both assuming they own the same event. If the game names a specific side or marked area, repeat that detail.
No permanent first-party emergency table was found on the public experience page. The official description confirms emergencies, while the specific scraper procedure comes from a current walkthrough checked August 30, 2026.
Stabilize the aircraft
The pilot should release unnecessary inputs and make small corrections. W/S controls pitch and A/D turns under the official keyboard scheme; Shift increases throttle and Ctrl decreases it. Avoid combining a large turn, throttle change, and pitch correction while the repair player is moving.
In a crew, the pilot stays at the controls. In solo play, level the aircraft as much as possible before leaving the pilot position. Do not start the repair during a sharp approach or just after losing control; first create a predictable flight state.
Announce any necessary maneuver so the engineer is not surprised while traveling through or outside the aircraft.
Obtain the current ice tool
One recent guide describes using the supply order terminal to obtain an Ice Scraper. Locate the terminal before takeoff when possible. During the event, inspect its current options and select the item named by the warning. If the live game gives you a tool directly or points elsewhere, follow that route instead.
Do not order several items because the first delivery is not immediate. Wait for the current delivery or pickup cue. A community walkthrough describes supplies arriving at a collection point around the aircraft, but the exact place may vary by update or plane.
Confirm the tool is in your character’s possession before going to the wing. If the interface shows an equipped slot, select it.
Clear the affected wing
Follow the current marker, warning, or visible ice to the target. Approach from a safe interaction angle and use the prompt exactly as displayed. Hold the interaction if a progress indicator requires it; otherwise repeat only when the game asks.
One repair owner should occupy the target. Extra players can keep the route clear or handle passengers. Crowding the wing can block the prompt and makes it unclear whose action registered.
Watch for a cleared warning, restored appearance, objective update, or another explicit completion signal. Do not assume one animation means the event ended.
Recover the normal flight
Report “ice clear” only after confirmation. Return to the aircraft and move out of the pilot’s workspace. The pilot checks pitch response, heading, and destination guidance, then resumes normal cruise or prepares a gradual approach.
Do not overcorrect to make up for time lost during the repair. Early runway alignment and controlled throttle are still safer than a rushed descent. Cabin support can resume pending passenger requests after the flight state is stable.
If the tool remains in your possession, follow any current return or storage behavior. There is no verified public rule that every tool must be permanently preloaded for future events.
Solo freezing-wings plan
Finish ground tasks and learn the supply route before takeoff. When icing appears, stabilize with small inputs and note the heading. Leave the controls only for the required supply and wing interaction. Return after each essential step if the aircraft begins drifting.
Avoid beginning another food or luggage action while the warning is active. Solo success depends on reducing simultaneous jobs. If the destination is already close, prioritize a safe flight path and the required repair over optional cabin efficiency.
Troubleshoot the scraper interaction
Re-read the warning and confirm it says wing icing rather than a passenger temperature request. Verify that the correct tool is selected. Move away from the target, approach from a clearer angle, and wait for the live prompt. Make sure another player is not using the same spot.
If the warning points to a different wing or location, follow the marker rather than the visual you noticed first. If no interaction registers after a clean retry, capture the prompt and try a fresh official server. Beta behavior can change, and a stuck event should not be turned into an invented secret step.
Common mistakes
- Fetching medicine or food for an aircraft icing warning.
- Leaving the plane uncontrolled in co-op.
- Assuming the scraper location never changes.
- Ordering duplicate tools during delivery delay.
- Crowding the affected wing.
- Returning before the warning clears.
- Rushing the landing immediately after recovery.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the Ice Scraper?
A current walkthrough reports obtaining it through the supply terminal. Check the live warning and terminal because location and delivery behavior can change during beta.
Is a cold passenger the same event?
No. Confirm whether the prompt targets a wing or a passenger. Passenger care follows the requested cabin item or interaction.
Can the pilot fix the wing?
In solo play the pilot may need to, after stabilizing. In co-op, keep the pilot flying and assign a support player to the tool and wing.
