Airbus and ATR experts delivered presentations on the requirements to the anti-/de-icing equipment and ground staff training as well as on the main issues of pilot training.

Within the exchange of experience on the implementation of the ‘Methodical Recommendation for Aircraft Ground De-/Anti-Icing’, developed by IAC in cooperation with the experts of leading Russian airlines and airports, the foremost experts of ground handling services and airlines delivered presentations on the following topics: ensuring anti-icing protection of aircraft in airports and quality control, amendments to the methodical recommendations on aircraft ground de-/anti-icing.

The workshop practical part was held at the Sheremetievo Airport on the second day. The attendees were introduced to the anti-icing treatment procedure, storing and utilization of liquid waste products. They also visited De-/Anti-Icing Fluid Depot, Diagnostics Laboratory and PSC Aviation Personnel Training Department.

The participants noted highly organized and well-coordinated work of ground handling services and airline crews, involved in the process of the aircraft de-/anti-icing treatment.

The attendees approved the ‘Aircraft Ground De-/Anti-Icing’ methodical recommendations and proposals on their development:

-          Requirements to the de-/anti-icing treatment of specific aircraft types;

-          Scheme of deicer traffic near aircraft;

-          Preliminary de-/anti-icing treatment;

-          Aircraft de-/anti-icing treatment in arctic conditions (super low temperatures);

-          Aircraft de-/anti-icing treatment with working engines;

-          Order phraseology and forms with regard to aircraft de-/anti-icing treatment;

-          Impact of RWY and taxiway de-/anti-icing liquid on the aircraft airframe and systems;

A plan of the development of amendments to the ‘Aircraft Ground De-/Anti-Icing’ methodical recommendations was approved, which includes the summary of the proposals by workshop participants and the publishing of the new version of the recommendations by August 2016 for further implementation in airlines and airports of the Member-States of the Agreement on Civil Aviation and Use of Airspace during autumn and winter period 2016-2017.
