Is there a way to verify icing if the ice melts in the fire?

The flaps probably got iced up and locked, preventing proper roll.

Remember the crash a few months ago in Colorado..killed the family of the NBC guy?..speculation also was that the plane wasn't de-iced..there were several articles that said that for these pirvate small jets..sometimes the cost of de-icing the plane..$$$$.can be the difference between the flight being profitable, or money losing..it's entirely up to the captain, at his discretion..no requirement for someone on the ground to make the call..
