A method for detecting icing conditions for an airborne aircraft operating within a zone defined using one or more aircraft-related parameter and one or more environment parameter includes: (a) In no particular order: (1) measuring the aircraft-related parameter(s) to obtain aircraft-related parametric value(s); and (2) measuring the environment-related parameter(s) to obtain environment-related parametric value(s). (b) Employing the aircraft-related parametric value(s) and the environment-related parametric value(s) to determine whether the aircraft is operating within the zone. (c) If the aircraft is operating within the zone, observing elapsed time during which the aircraft is operating within the zone. (d) If the aircraft has operated within the zone for a predetermined elapsed time-in-zone, displaying an alert message for a user to indicate a likelihood of presence of icing conditions.
