Deicing Training Designee - Responsible for Deice Personnel training and records. Reports to Director, Operations. G. Dispatch Shift Supervisor - Responsible for reviewing weather conditions at outstations, and alerting appropriate personnel when conditions are conducive to icing. H. Manager, Airport Affairs - Obtains Contract Deicing Vendors and agreements. I. Pilot-in-Command - Responsible for safety of the flight, crew, cargo, and aircraft. In addition, PIC is responsible for: (1) Ensuring that the preflight inspection (Preflight External Icing Check) of the aircraft’s critical surfaces has been accomplished. (2) Insuring that the aircraft’s critical surfaces are free from adhering frost, snow, ice, or any adhering frozen contamination. (Crew Deice Report) DEICE ANTI-ICE OPERATIONS MANUAL APPROVED: EMI-FSDO UNCONTROLLED WHEN PRINTED CHAPTER: 0 PAGE: 2 REV. NO.: 42 DATE: 09-08-20 (3) Overseeing the deicing/anti-icing process at stations without ABX Air Qualified Deice Personnel, including determining the type, kind, and mixture of the deicing fluid and when the anti-ice application was started. (4) Ensuring that a Pretakeoff Check is accomplished by a Flight Crewmember or, if necessary, Qualified Deice Personnel (remote operations or tactile inspections) after the deicing/anti-icing process. (5) Ensuring that a Pretakeoff Contamination Check is accomplished by a Flight Crewmember or, if necessary, by Qualified Deice Personnel (remote operations or tactile inspections) if the holdover times has expired. Note: Pretakeoff and Pretakeoff Contamination Checks are normally accomplished by the Flight Crew. (6) Contact: ABX Air, Inc.
