Definition of Icing Conditions
- OAT (on the ground and for takeoff) or TAT (inflight) is 10c or below, and
- Visible moisture in any form is present such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet and ice crystals or
- When operating on ramps, taxiways, or runways where surface snow, ice, standing water, or slush may be ingested by engines, freeze on engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes.
Engine Anti-Ice System
Engine anti-ice must be on during all ground and flight ops when icing conditions exist except during climb and cruise when the temperature is below -40°C SAT
- Engine anti-ice must be on prior to and during descent in icing conditions, including temperatures below -40°C SAT
