  1. Friends/Partners In Aviation Weather Air Transportation De-icing Programs

  2. Hold Over Time Tables • Research Completed Over The course of the Winter for Following Winter Season • Research Results Presented and Discussed at SAE Meeting in May • HOT Tables Drafts Completed in July • Published on AFS-200 Web Site • FSAT/Notice Material Assembled in August and September • FSAT/Notice Published in October

  3. Ice Pellet Relief • Allowance Time of 25 Min. Light Ice Pellet Conditions • Not mixed with other forms of precipitation. • De-iced (if required), and Anti-iced with Type IV fluid. • Pre-takeoff contamination check not required. • Additional Research this Winter • Mixed contaminate conditions with ice pellets.

  4. Evaporator Plate/Moisture Content Data in Place of Visibility Determination of Precipitation Intensity Levels • Several Test Sites in Place for this Winter Season • Had Hoped for Information/discussion in FSAT/Notice for 2006-2007 Season • Lot of Work to be Done • Researchers/Designers • Operational Implementation Personnel
