GROUND DEICEIANTI-ICE OPERATIONS (Continued)
TYPE
II ANTI-ICE FLUID
NOTE
Freezing point of Type II fluid mixture must be at least
10°C
(18°F) below OAT.
Holdover time starts when last application has begun.
Application techniques for Type II fluid are the same as
for Type
I,
except that since the airplane is already
clean, the application should last only long enough to
properly coat the airplane surfaces.
Type II fluid should be applied undiluted at ambient
temperature to a "clean" airplane within three minutes
after deicing is completed, due to the limited holdover
times of Type I deice fluid. Type
II fluid is however,
sometimes heated and sprayed as a deicing fluid. For
this case, it should be considered a Type
I
fluid, as the
heat may change the characteristics of the thickening
agents in the fluid. Type
II fluid therefore, applied in this
manner, will not be as effective as it would be if it were
applied at ambient temperature.
WARNING
WHEN GROUND
ICING CONDITIONS ARE PRESENT. A
PRE-TAKEOFF
CONTAMINATION
CHECK
SHOULD
BE
CONDUCTED BY THE PILOT IN COMMAND WITHIN
5
M~NUTES
OF
TAKEOFF,
PREFERABLY JUST PRIOR
TO TAXIING ONTO THE ACTIVE RUNWAY. CRITICAL
AREAS OF THE AIRPLANE SUCH AS EMPENNAGE,
WINGS, WINDSHIELD, CONTROL SURFACES, AND
ENGINE INLETS SHOULD BE CHECKED TO MAKE
SURE THEY ARE FREE OF ICE, SLUSH, AND SNOW
AND THAT THE ANTI-ICE FLUID IS STILL PROTECTING
THE AIRPLANE.
