    SECTION VII ADVISORY INFORMATION

    MODEL 560XL

    GROUND DEICE/ANTI-ICE OPERATIONS


    During cold weather operations, flight crews are responsible for ensuring the airplane is
    free of ice contaminants.
    Ground icing may occur whenever there is high humidity with temperatures of +10°C or
    colder. Type I deice, and Type II or Type IV anti-ice fluids may be used sequentially to
    ensure compliance with FAA regulations (clean wing concept) requiring critical
    component airframe deicing and anti-icing.
    NOTE
    It is recommended that flight crews refamiliarize themselves seasonally
    with the following publications for expanded deice and anti-ice procedures:
    • Cessna Maintenance Manual Chapter 12.
    • FAA Advisory Circular AC 120-58 (large aircraft), dated September 30,
    1992 or later.
    • FAA Advisory Circular AC 135-17 (small aircraft), dated December 14,
    1994 or later.
    • Cessna Citation Service Letter 560XL-30-01, dated November 02,
    1999 or latest revision.

    DEICING/ANTI-ICING PROCEDURES (TYPE I, TYPE II, AND TYPE IV FLUIDS)


    ONE STEP DEICING - Type I fluid is used to remove ice, slush and snow from the
    airplane prior to departure, and to provide minimal anti-icing protection as provided in
    the Type I holdover timetable (refer to applicable service letter).
    TWO STEP DEICE/ANTI-ICE - May be used to ensure the airplane remains clean after
    deicing. Type II or Type IV fluid is used to provide longer term anti-icing protection as
    provided in the Type II or Type IV holdover timetable (refer to applicable service letter).
    CAUTION
    TYPE I, TYPE II, AND TYPE IV FLUIDS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE AND
    MAY NOT BE MIXED. ADDITIONALLY, MOST MANUFACTURERS
    PROHIBIT MIXING OF BRANDS WITHIN A TYPE.
    Line personnel should be supervised by the PIC or SIC to ensure proper application of
    deice or anti-ice, fluids. Refer to Figures 7-9 and 7-10.
    NOTE
    The first area to be deiced/anti-iced should be easily visible from the
    cabin/cockpit and should be used to provide a conservative estimate for
    unseen areas of the airplane before initiating takeoff roll.
    Holdover timetables are only estimates and vary depending on many factors to include
    temperature, precipitation type, wind and airplane skin temperature. Holdover times are
    based on mixture ratio. Times start when the last application begins.
    SECTION VII - ADVISORY INFORMATION

    DEICING/ANTI-ICING PROCEDURES (TYPE I, TYPE II, AND TYPE IV


    FLUIDS) (Continued)
    Guidelines for holdover times anticipated by SAE Type I, Type II, or Type IV, and ISO
    Type I, Type II, or TYPE IV fluid mixtures are a function of weather conditions and
    outside air temperature (OAT).
    CAUTION

    • AIRPLANE OPERATORS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING


    HOLDOVER TIMETABLES CONTAIN CURRENT DATA.
    • TABLES ARE FOR USE IN DEPARTURE PLANNING ONLY AND THEY
    SHOULD BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH PRETAKEOFF
    CONTAMINATION CHECK PROCEDURES.
    NOTE

    • Tables do not apply to other than SAE or ISO Type I, Type II or Type IV
    FPD fluids.
    • The responsibility for the application of this data remains with the user.
    • The freezing point of Type I, Type II, and Type IV fluid mixture must be at
    least 10°C (18°F) below the current OAT.
    SPRAYING TECHNIQUE - TYPE I FLUID
    Type I fluid should be sprayed on the airplane (with engines off) in a manner which
    minimizes heat loss to the air. If possible, fluid should be sprayed in a solid cone
    pattern of large coarse droplets at a temperature of 160° to 180°F. The fluid should be
    sprayed as close as possible to the airplane surfaces, but not closer than 10 feet if a
    high pressure nozzle is used. Refer to Figures 7-9 and 7-10 for essential areas to be
    deiced and anti-iced.
    SPRAYING TECHNIQUE - TYPE II FLUID
    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. Refer to Figure 7-9 and 7-10 for essential areas to be deiced/anti-
    iced.
    Type II, fluid should be applied cold to a "clean" airplane. It 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 if it were applied
    cold.
    DEICING/ANTI-ICING PROCEDURES (TYPE I, TYPE II, AND TYPE IV
    FLUIDS) (Continued)

    SPRAYING TECHNIQUE - TYPE IV FLUID


    Application techniques for Type IV 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. Refer to Figure 7-9 and 7-10 for essential areas to be
    deiced/anti-iced.
    Type IV, fluid should be applied cold to a "clean" airplane. It 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 IV fluid, therefore, applied in this manner, will not be as effective as if it were
    applied cold.
    NOTE
    • Holdover time starts when last application has begun.
    • Some Type IV fluids could form a thick or high-strength gell during
    "dry-out" and when rehydrated form a slippery film.
    • Some Type IV fluids exhibit poor aerodynamic elimination (flow-off)
    qualities at colder temperatures.
    • Heated areas of aircraft (i.e.; heated leading edge) should be avoided
    due to the fact that fluid may "dry-out" into hard globular nodules.
    • Type IV fluid should not be used undiluted below -24°C (-11 °F).

    PRETAKEOFF CONTAMINATION CHECK - GROUND ICING CONDITIONS


    When ground icing conditions are present, a pretakeoff contamination check should be
    conducted by the PIC/SIC within 5 minutes prior to takeoff, preferably just prior to taxiing
    onto the active runway. Critical areas of the airplane such as empennage, wing,
    windshield and control surfaces should be checked to ensure they are free of ice, slush
    and snow or that the deice/anti-ice fluids are still protecting the airplane. Refer to Figure
    7-9 and 7-10 for essential areas to be deiced/anti-iced.
