Accidents and incidents
-----------------------

Skyline's only accident was Linjeflyg Flight 618, which took place during approach to [Stockholm Bromma Airport](/wiki/Stockholm_Bromma_Airport "Stockholm Bromma Airport") at 09:05 on 15 January 1977\. The flight was operated from Malmö to Stockholm via Kristianstand, Växjö and Jönköping. During approach to Stockholm Bromma Airport the horizontal stabilizer experienced [atmospheric icing](/wiki/Atmospheric_icing "Atmospheric icing"). Low power on two of the engines had caused reduced function of the [ice protection system](/wiki/Ice_protection_system "Ice protection system"), causing a buildup of ice. During approach the pilots suddenly lost pitch control and the aircraft crashed in the neighborhood of [Kälvesta](/wiki/K%C3%A4lvesta "Kälvesta"), Stockholm. There were nineteen passengers and a crew of three on board; all were killed in the accident.


Are there any specific regulations for ice protection systems on commercial flights?
