VietJet Air will update FAA handover time table annually in the end of
August.
CAUTION: HEAVY PRECIPITATION RATES OR HIGH MOISTURE
CONTENT, HIGH WIND VELOCITY OR JET BLAST MAY REDUCE
HOLDOVER TIME BELOW THE LOWEST TIME STATED IN THE
RANGE. HOLDOVER TIME MAY ALSO BE REDUCED WHEN
AIRCRAFT SKIN TEMPERATURE IS LOWER THAN OAT.
THEREFORE, THE INDICATED TIMES SHOULD BE USED ONLY IN
CONJUNCTION WITH A PRE-TAKEOFF CHECK.
NOTE 1: Certain fluids may be qualified according to fluid
specifications but may not have been tested during winter to develop
the holdovertime guidelines specified in this document.
Holdover time guidelines in this document are not applicable to these
fluids.
NOTE 2: For use of holdover time guidelines consult Fluid
Manufacturer Technical Literature for minimum viscosity limits of fluids
as applied to aircraft surfaces.
NOTE 3: A degraded type II or type IV fluid shall be used with the
holdover time guideline for type I fluids. A type II or type IV fluid is
considered to be degraded if the viscosity is below the minimum limit
as provided by the fluid manufacturer. The type II fluid holdover time
guideline may be used with degraded type IV fluids only after
substantiation by holdover time testing.
NOTE 4: Holdover time guidelines can also be obtained for individual
fluid products and these ”brand name” holdover times will be found to
differ from the guidelines.
NOTE 5: Holdover time guidelines provided in this section are generic.
Refer to FAA approved HOT charts for accurate application of HOT.
1.10.2 Other fluids not listed in this guideline
For stations that require specific holdover time of the fluids for local
use, approval can be sought from VJC Engineering. After a satisfactory
assessment is completed, approved holdover time table (FAA
approved) for that particular 'brand name’ fluid will be sent to the
station, and advised to all parties involved in the De-icing/Anti- icing
process.

Not more than 10 psi (0.6895 bar) impact pressure on all other
surfaces.
To perform an effective deicing operation, the de-icer should have full
control over the movement of the nozzle. It is necessary for the nozzle
to be able to vary the pattern between a cone shaped and solid stream,
and the flow rate from minimum to maximum.
1.11.3 Equipment communication requirements
The deicing vehicle needs to have an appropriate communication
system that is suited for the operation in use, e.g. VHF, UHF, mobile
phone etc.
A two-way communication needs to be established between the vehicle
and the aircraft (or the coordinator). This communication needs to be
performed via VHF- radio.
The radio needs to be approved for use for aviation frequencies. An
intercom communication (or similar) needs to be established when two
persons are operating the vehicle.
Certain airports have separate frequencies for different areas of deicing
operation. The communication equipment must be suited for the local
setting and the personnel trained accordingly.
1.11.4 Before-use
The ground de-icing crew shall check vehicles for proper operation
before use.
The basic operation shall be verified and discrepancies noted. The
different systems used in the vehicle should be checked for proper
performance, e.g. fluid quantity indication, burner and other similar
elements that have to do with the proper operation of the vehicle.
Additional equipment shall be checked and located (e.g. safety
harnesses, hearing protectors, fire extinguisher).
The vehicle should be checked for all fluids needed when in use (e.g.
windshield washing fluid, fuel etc.).
The ground crew shall note that the vehicle is usually used in areas
where space is limited, where visibility can be limited and where the
surface is slippery due to ice or the mix of glycol on the ground.
It is recommended to test the brakes before approaching the aircraft to
verify how slippery the surface is and in general test the performance of
the brake.

PROGRAM MANUAL 16 Oct 2018
Contents
Put fluid from the sample into a clean glass bottle or equivalent;
Check for any kind of contamination (e.g. rust particles, metallic debris, rubber
parts, etc.);
The check can be made by any equivalent method.
At those Airports where VJC staff are responsible for mixing the fluid, the
Engineering Manager or his delegated representative is charged with the
responsibility of checking the quality of each separate mix.
Where a handling agent is responsible for mixing de-icing fluid that will be
used on VJC aircraft, that handling agent will be responsible for ensuring that
the fluid is to the correct mix. At these Airports, the Engineering Manager or
his delegated representative is charged with the responsibility to carry out
audit checks and ensure the integrity of the fluid used on VJC aircraft. A
record must be maintained of these spot checks.
c) pH-value Check
Take a piece of pH paper and put it in the fluid so that the pH paper
becomes wetted with the fluid;
Remove the pH paper from the fluid and compare its color with the
color of the table provided with the pH paper and read the
corresponding pH value;
Compare the pH-value with the figures from the fluid manufacturer;
The check can be made by any equivalent method;
pH check in the laboratory should be performed with a pH-
measurement instrument
The pH-check only identifies if the fluid is a neutral fluid as glycol should be.
As this is very difficult to identify precisely with pH-paper a laboratory test
sample may be more representative. This is not always possible to do in a
laboratory and the main point is to identify that the fluid is not contaminated
with e.g. an acid or alkaline substance that may change the correct
performance of the fluid when mixed with the glycol in great amounts.
Another possibility is to identify aircraft glycol from runway glycol when they
are not colored. This can be noted with visibly different pH-values, even with a
paper test.
This check shall be made with a falling ball method, where the
reference liquids represent the minimum and maximum allowed
viscosity of the tested product;
Put the sample into a clean sample tube;

After all 3 balls have reached the bottom of the tubes, turn the tool
±180 degrees to a full vertical position;

may have formed, a close inspection of upper wing surfaces must be made
using suitable means of access. Should de-icing be required, a further close
inspection must be
Note: The low wing temperatures, associated with this type of build- up,
normally occur when large quantities of super cooled fuel remain in wing tanks
during the turnaround/transit, and any subsequent fuel uplift is insufficient to
cause a significant increase in fuel temperature.
f) Ice can build-up on control surfaces when descending through thick
cloud or precipitation during an approach. When ground temperatures
at the destination are low, it is possible for flaps to be retracted and
for accumulations of ice to remain undetected between stationary and
movable surfaces. It is therefore important that these areas are
checked prior to departure and any frozen deposits removed.
g) Under freezing fog conditions it is necessary for the rear side of the
fan blades to be checked for ice build-up prior to start-up. Any
deposits discovered are to be removed by directing air from a low
flow hot air source, such as a cabin heater, onto the affected area.
h) When slush is present on runways, inspect the aircraft when it arrives
at the ramp for slush/ice accumulations. If the aircraft arrives at the
gate with flaps in a position other than fully retracted, those flaps
which are extended must be inspected and if necessary de-iced
before retraction.
2.5 COMMUNICATION IN DE-ICING/ANTI-ICING
2.5.1 Importance of communication
To get the highest possible visibility concerning de-/anti-icing, a good level of
communication between ground and Flight Crew is necessary.
Observations or points significant to the Flight or ground crew should be
reported between them.
These observations may concern the weather or aircraft-related
circumstances or other factors important for the dispatch of the aircraft.
Several incidents have shown that increased awareness of one part of the
flight/ground crew team could have avoided a critical situation.
The MINIMUM requirements of communication must comprise the details of
WHEN the aircraft was de-iced and the QUALITY of treatment (TYPE of fluid).
See below.

PROGRAM MANUAL 16 Oct 2018
2.5.2 Before-dispatch
No aircraft shall be dispatched for departure after a de-icing / anti-icing
operation unless the Flight Crew has been notified of the type of de-icing /
anti-icing operation performed. The ground crew must make sure that the
Flight Crew has been informed. The Flight Crew should make sure that they
have the information. This information must be communicated to flight crew
via an aircraft tech log entry.
If de-icing/anti-icing has been completed and the door remains open details of
the resultant clean aircraft shall be relayed to fight crew via a techlog entry;
This information includes the results of the final inspection by qualified
personnel, indicating that the aircraft critical parts are free of ice, frost and
snow. It also includes the necessary anti-icing codes to allow the Flight Crew
to estimate the holdover time to be expected under the prevailing weather
conditions.
When the aircraft is to be treated with the Flight Crew on board, the Flight and
ground Crews should confirm the fluid to be used, the extent of treatment
required, and any aircraft type specific procedure(s) to be used. Any other
information needed to be applied to the HOT (Holdover Time) tables shall be
exchanged.
Before reconfiguring or moving the aircraft, the Flight Crew should receive a
confirmation from the ground crew that all de-icing and/or anti-icing operations
are complete and that all personnel and equipment are clear of the aircraft.
2.5.3 Anti-icing codes
It is essential that Flight Crew receives clear information from ground
personnel as to the treatment applied to the aircraft.
After de-icing, the Flight Crew will receive a four-element code, giving the
minimum details to assess holdover times. The use of local time is preferred
but, in any case, statement of the reference is essential. This information must
be recorded and communicated to the Flight Crew by referring to the last step
of the procedure.
The following information shall be recorded and be communicated to the flight
crew by referring to the last step of the procedure provided below:
The fluid type (e.g. Type I, II, III, IV);

This Section specifies the methods for deicing and anti-icing of aircraft on the
ground with fluids, in order to provide an aerodynamically clean aircraft.
When aircraft surfaces are contaminated by snow, frost, slush or ice, or when
freezing precipitation exists at the time of dispatch, aircraft surfaces shall be
deiced/anti-iced prior to dispatch.

FLUIDS
DE ICING / ANTI ICING
PROGRAM MANUAL 16 Oct 2018
If both deicing and anti-icing are required, the procedure may be performed in
one or two steps. The selection of a one- or two step process depends upon
on actual weather conditions, available equipment, available fluids and the
conditions of the aircraft (snow, ice, slush or frost covering or adhering to the
critical aircraft surfaces).
Two-step de/anti -icing is the Airbus and EASA-preferred method because
one- step de-icing, with Type II, III or IV, only causes build-up of residues in
the aircraft.
After long periods of de-icing/anti-icing, it is recommended to do a check of
areas and cavities that are not in the aerodynamic airflows (such as balance
bays and wing and stabilizer rear spars) for thickened fluid residues.
Large contaminants can be removed by air blower or brooms manually before
the actual de/anti-icing fluids are applied. This pre-step process can shorten
the time taken for de/anti-icing steps and less fluid will be consumed.
2.6.2 Flight Operations Procedures
In conjunction with compliance with this manual, Flight Operations procedures
for deicing and anti-icing of aircraft on the ground with fluids are contained in
the AFM and FCOM. These procedures are augmented by provisions in the
approved OM Suite. Flight operations policy as contained in this document
have been contained within the following approved manuals:
- De-icing/anti-icing Program Manual (This document)
- VJC De-icing/ anti-icing checklist (See appendix G)
a) One-step method
This procedure is carried out with heated anti-icing fluid. The fluid is used to
de- ice the aircraft and remains on the aircraft surface to provide anti-icing
capability. The SAE / ISO Type I, II, III and IV fluids can be used, but the
protection provided by Type I fluid is less than that provided by Type II, III and
IV fluids.
The mixture to choose for this step is the mixture that gives a protective cover;
in other words, the deicing is performed with an anti-icing mixture, which
protects the surface at the same time. The correct fluid concentration shall be
chosen with regard to desired holdover time and is dictated by outside air
temperature and weather conditions.
Wing skin temperatures may differ and, in some cases, be lower than OAT. A
stronger mix (more glycol in the glycol-water mixture) can be used under
these conditions. The stronger mix will not improve the holdover time but it will
lower the freezing point of the mixture.
b) Two-step method
The first step is performed with a hot deicing/anti-icing fluid. The correct fluid
shall be chosen with regard to temperature and shall provide protection of the
treated surfaces until the second step is performed.
The second step is performed on clean surfaces with an anti-icing fluid which
may be applied cold. The second step must be performed before the fluid
applied in the first step starts to freeze, typically within three minutes after the
first step. If necessary, the second step shall be performed area by area.
When applying the second step fluid, use a spraying technique which
effectively flushes off the first step fluid and provides a sufficient amount of
second step fluid to completely cover the surfaces with an adequate film
thickness. The second step fluid shall be applied from highest point to lowest
on the critical surfaces and in the same direction the first step fluid had been
applied. Where Re-freezingoccurs following the initial treatment both first and
second step must be repeated. The correct fluid concentration for the second
step shall be chosen with regard to desired holdover time, temperature and
weather conditions.

CAUTION:
2.6.3 Precautions
Engines and APU may be running during some de-icing operations (i.e. for
taxy through deicing rigs).
MAIN ENGINES must be at IDLE power and all AIR IN TAKES from ENGINE
and APUs MUST be selected OFF. Air conditioning packs should also be
switched off.
CAUTION:
De-icing fluid ingestion will cause damage to the engine/APU internal surfaces
and contaminate the pneumatic systems. Therefore, precautions MUST be
taken to PREVENT DE-ICING FLUID INGESTION WITH ENGINES
RUNNING.
DO NOT spray de-icing fluids into engines, APU or other intakes/outflow
valves/air-conditioning ram air inlets outlets, control surface cavities and servo
control areas and avionic cooling outlets.
DO NOT spray de-icing fluids onto brakes, wheels, brake fans, exhausts or
thrust reversers.
Prior to snow or ice being removed, either manually or with de-icing fluid, from
the tail plane area, first ensures the horizontal stabilizer is positioned in its

leading edge 'UP' positions. This will enable residues to run back off the
stabilizer rather than running forward from the trailing edge areas into
cavities/balance bays where they could subsequently refreeze.
DO NOT direct solid fluid stream at right angles to the surface. Apply at a low
angle to prevent damage to aircraft.
De-icing fluid must not be directed into the orifices of pitot heads, static vents
or directly onto airstream direction detector probes/angle of attack airflow
sensors.
DO NOT direct fluids onto flight deck or cabin windows as this can cause
crazing of acrylics or penetration of the window sealing.
All doors and windows must be closed to prevent:
a) Door entrance and galley floor areas being contaminated with
slippery de-icing fluids.
b) Carpets and upholstery becoming soiled.
Before closing any aircraft door, all slush and water must be removed from the
door area. This is essential at galley doors and any entrance not utilizing a
loading bridge. Ensure girt bar lugs on door sill are clear of ice and snow.
Any forward area from which fluid may blow back onto windscreens during
taxi or subsequent takeoff must be free of fluid residues prior to departure.
Any trace of de-icing fluid on flight deck windows must be removed prior to
departure, particular attention being paid to windows fitted with wipers (de-
icing fluid can be removed by rinsing with clean water or WWF de-icing fluid
and a soft cloth). Do not use windscreen wipers for this purpose.
Landing gear and wheel bays must be kept free from buildup of slush, ice or
accumulations of blown snow.
When sweeping ice, snow or slush from aircraft surfaces care must be taken
to prevent it entering and accumulating in auxiliary intakes or control surface
hinge areas, i.e. sweep snow from wings and stabilizer surfaces forward
towards the leading edge and sweep ailerons and elevators BACK towards
the trailing edge.
All snow must be removed from the nose radome area, in order to prevent
deposits from blowing back and obscuring the pilot’s vision on takeoff.
During heavy accumulations of snow. It is essential that the snow be removed
from the tail surfaces first.

Clear ice can form on an aircraft’s surfaces, below a layer of snow or slush. It
is therefore important that surfaces are closely inspected following each de-
icing operation, in order to ensure that all deposits have been removed.
After prolonged periods of de-/anti-icing it is advisable to check
aerodynamically quiet areas and cavities, such as balance bays, wing and
stabilizer rear spar areas, for residues of thickened de-/anti-icing fluids.
Cargo and catering personnel must be notified when de-icing will take place.
Do not de-ice while cargo or catering personnel are loading or off-loading the
aircraft.
The flight crew must be notified that de-icing is about to commence in order to
ensure appropriate systems are shut down.
On completion of de-icing the flight crew must be advised in order that they
may verify that the aircraft is acceptable for departure and that the appropriate
systems may be re-activated. Prior to the aircraft movement, flight crew must
be advised all ground equipment and personnel are cleared from the aircraft.
Fluid Related Limits
Temperature Limits
When performing two-step deicing/anti-icing, the freezing point of the fluid
used for the first step shall not be more than 3°C (5,4°F) above ambient
temperature, provided heated fluid is used. See Appendix 1.5/1.6.
CAUTION: Aircraft skin temperature and outside air temperature can differ.
NOTE:
If the cabin of the aircraft has been heated for more than two hours when the
deicing/anti-icing treatment is performed, the fuselage is less susceptible to
accumulation of ice and snow. In this case, when type II or IV fluid is used,
only the first step of a two-step procedure, should be performed on the
fuselage, however below 0 to -3°C (32 to 27°F) a fluid mix of at least 25/75
shall be used instead of water. The remaining parts of the aircraft shall be
treated as normal.
ISO/SAE Type I Fluids
CAUTION:
Type I fluids supplied as concentrates for dilution with water prior to use shall
not be used undiluted, unless they meet the aerodynamic performance and
freezing point buffer requirements. This is due to adverse aerodynamic effects
of propylene glycol and diethylene glycol based fluids and the freeze point
characteristics of ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol based fluids.
Page 2 - 22

FLUIDS
DE ICING / ANTI ICING
PROGRAM MANUAL 16 Oct 2018
The freezing point of the type I fluid mixture used for either one- step
deicing/anti-icing or as a second step in the two-step operation shall be at
least 10°C(18°F) below the ambient temperature.
NOTE:
When longer holdover times are desired, use of undiluted type II or IV fluid
should be considered.
ISO/SAE Type II / Type IV Fluids
Type II / type IV fluids used as deicing/anti-icing agents generally have a
lower temperature application limit of -25°C (-13°F). The application limit may
be lower, provided a 7°C (12.6°F) buffer is maintained between the freezing
point of the neat fluid and outside air temperature. Under no circumstances
must a product be used if the outside air temperature is lower than the Lowest
Operational Use Temperature as defined by the aerodynamic acceptance test
of the used product.
For other type II / type IV fluid requirements and limitations see Appendix 1 &
2. For restrictions regarding application of type II or IV fluids as second step
over type I fluid in first step.
WARNING:
NOTE:
A thin layer of frost not exceeding 3 mm thickness is generally permitted on
the wing lower surfaces within the wing tank areas. Operation with frost
adhering on areas of the wing other than the lower surface fuel tank area is
not permitted.
b) Removal of snow or slush
A nozzle setting sufficient to flush off deposits shall be used.
The method adopted will depend on the equipment available and the depth a
nd type of snow; i.e. light and dry or wet and heavy.
In general, the heavier the deposits the heavier the fluid flow t will be required
to remove it effectively and efficiently from the aircraft surfaces. For light
deposits of both wet and dry snow, similar procedures as for frost removal
may be adopted. Wet snow is more difficult to remove than dry snow and
unless deposits are relatively light, selection of high fluid flow will be more
effective. Under certain
conditions it will be possible to use the heat, combined with the hydraulic force
of the fluid spray, to melt and subsequently flush off frozen deposits.
A layer of snow can hide a sub-layer of clear ice. Therefore, snow removal is
not a guarantee for a completely deiced surface since the clear ice layer is
difficult to see.
NOTE:
Heavy accumulations of snow will always be difficult to remove from aircraft
surfaces and vast quantities of fluid will be consumed. Serious consideration
should be given to manual removal of deposits with long soft brooms before
normal deicing with fluids.
CAUTION:
Prior to deicing of wings, it must be determined whether or not ice exists
under the snow.
CAUTION:
When removing snow from the aircraft surfaces, do not damage antennas,
vortex generators, sensors, pitot tubes, static dischargers, clear ice indicators
or similar.
Remove snow with a soft brush from:
The engine air intake and exhaust nozzle;
The APU exhaust nozzle;

CAUTION:
2.6.8 Anti-icing
Application of anti-icing fluids will, for a limited period of time, prevent ice,
snow, slush or frost from adhering to or accumulating on aircraft surfaces.
WARNING:
Before anti-icing fluid is applied, all ice and frozen material must be
removed from the aircraft. Melted ice and water mixed with the anti-icing
fluid can freeze again and prevent movement of controls. For specific
requirements, the aircraft maintenance manual for the affected aircraft type
must be consulted.
Required Usage
Anti-icing fluid shall be applied to the aircraft surfaces when freezing rain,
snow or other freezing precipitation may adhere to the aircraft at the time
of aircraft takeoff.
Optional Usage
Anti-icing fluid may be applied to aircraft surfaces at the time of arrival
(preferably before unloading begins) on short turnarounds during freezing
precipitation, and on overnight aircraft. This will minimize ice accumulation
prior to departure and often makes subsequent deicing easier. However,
the holdover time of the treatment must not be exceeded.

PROGRAM MANUAL 16 Oct 2018
On receipt of a frost, snow, freezing rain or freezing fog warning from the
local meteorological service, anti-icing fluid may be applied to aircraft
surfaces prior to the start of freezing precipitation. This will minimize or
reduce the accumulation of frozen precipitation on aircraft surfaces and
facilitate subsequent deicing.
General Usage
For effective anti-icing, an even film of anti-icing fluid is required over the
aircraft surfaces which are clean or which have been deiced. For longer
anti- icing protection, undiluted, unheated type II or type IV fluid should be
used.
CAUTION:
ISO/SAE type I fluids have limited effectiveness when used for anti-icing
purposes. Little benefit is gained from the minimal holdover time
generated.

NOTE:
According to the AMM 12-31-12, for the fluids applied on the aircraft skin
with the spray gun:
The nozzle must be at a distance of between 0.5 m (1.64 ft.) and 3 m (9.84
ft.) from the aircraft skin;
At a distance of more than 3 m (9.84 ft.), the effect of the de-icing fluid will
not be satisfactory.
The heat in the fluid effectively melts any frost, as well as light deposits of
snow, slush/sleet and ice. A stream of hot fluid is directed at safe close
range onto one spot at an angle of less than 90, until the aircraft skin is
exposed. Heavier accumulations require the heat to break the bond
between the frozen deposits and the structure; the hydraulic force of the
fluid spray is then used to flush off the residue;

anti-icing
Dried fluid residue could occur when surfaces have been treated
but the aircraft has not subsequently been flown and not been
subject to precipitation. The fluid may then have dried on the
surfaces. In such situations the aircraft must be checked for
residues from de-icing / anti-icing fluids and cleaned as
necessary.

The aircraft can be de-iced and/or anti-iced when the APU and engines are
either stopped or running. However, do not start the engines when the ground
crew is spraying fluid on the aircraft. CAUTION: Make sure that the low or
high-pressure ground connectors do not supply any external air to the aircraft.
CAUTION:
2. The left and right sides of the aircraft should receive the
same, complete and symmetrical de-icing / anti-icing
treatment.

Technical Log Entry
completion of spraying
operation: APU
BLEED...................................................................................................ON
NOTE: If the fuselage has been sprayed, there is a risk of de-icing fluid
ingestion by the APU air intake, resulting in specific odors, or smoke
warnings. Keep the APU running with the APU BLEED OFF for about 5 min
after spraying completion before selecting APU BLEED ON.
Consider APU BLEED OFF for takeoff.
If aircraft engines were started and subsequently shutdown for
de- icing/anti-icing spraying:
- Reload the INIT B page from Weight and Balance Data then
conduct data cross checks for INIT B as per normal
procedures.
- Notate the fuel used on the flight plan for reference.
