Indoor Anti-icing of Aircraft offer many advantages such as the flexibility to prepare & depart your aircraft upon a moments notice, quality control at your fingertips, pre-established fluid quantities to improve your operational budget. However, indoor anti-icing applications should be performed as close to takeoff as possible. Holdover time commences when you begin spraying the anti-icing fluid on the aircraft, even though the aircraft is indoors.
Wing Armor allows operators to spray both wings simultaneously thereby increasing the time of protection from ice adhering to aircraft surfaces during taxi/takeoff.
A 60 gallon unit can anti-ice super large business jets (100 ft. wingspan) quickly ensuring safe takeoffs in icing conditions.
Most deicing pads at primary & secondary airports utilize multiple truck operations to enhance “throughput times” while de/anti-icing. Medium to super-large business jets can often cost upwards of $10,000 – $20,000.
There also can be “tremendous over-spray” on smaller business aircraft. At many larger airports, air carriers have priority, so not only do business aircraft operators pay a premium for deicing services but they are often penalized as a result of lengthy delays on ramps/taxiways, imminently requiring another de-icing before take-off.
