International De/Anti-icing Chapter - Foreword<br />

This is only a portion of the FAA approved de/anti-icing program and does not cover detailed<br />

flight crew or dispatcher procedures.<br />

It covers international de/anti-icing differences associated with local procedures<br />

accomplished by third-party de-icing providers.<br />

Third party providers may use all procedures from the main approved de/anti-icing manual or<br />

substitute differences contained in the International De/Anti-icing Chapter.<br />

This chapter is divided into four sections:<br />

− Procedures Section<br />

− Training Section<br />

− Quality Control Section<br />

− Reference Section<br />

Procedures<br />

1 De/Anti-icing Fluids<br />

This section on the delivery, storage, pumping, handling and testing of fluids follows<br />

accurately the AEA Recommendations. It may be possible for any regulation to simply refer<br />

to the AEA Recommendations and Training Manual and thereby give tacit approval.<br />

2 De/Anti-icing Operations<br />

2.1 General<br />

The de/anti-icing operation must be suited for each airport, company and local setting.<br />

However, airworthiness and operational regulations state that no one can take-off in an<br />

aircraft that has any contamination on critical surfaces.<br />

The clean aircraft concept shall be set as the only way of operating.<br />

2.2 Preliminary work for the start of de/anti-icing<br />

A verification of procedures for de/anti-icing should then be made. Procedures may vary<br />

according to local demands. The necessary inspections and communications can be made<br />
