Oct 8, 2007 :: The FAA has published Notice 8900.19 regarding allowance times in ice pellet conditions, procedures and limitations for pilot assessment of precipitation intensity and dispatch in heavy snow conditions. This notice applies primarily to certificate holders and fractional program managers that have FAA-approved deicing/anti-icing programs or plans. During the winter of 2006 and 2007, operations in light ice pellets were approved with an allowance time of 25 minutes. After conducting additional research, the FAA has extended allowance times for operations in various ice and heavy snow conditions.
