I have been sitting back reading the various posts about this and it is quite amusing to read all what the 'instant experts' have to say. There is no deice equip avail. in mel for qf yet (soon to be rect.) You can't use cold water as an alt. it must be warmer than 82 Cels. Cold soak fuel frost affects 738,A330 and if cond. right 767. If there is no deice avail your only alt. is to transfer fuel, upload some more or wait for the sun. What happened on Fri. it was Jack frost ex onite and all that was avail. to remove it was the good old broom after the big ball of gas in the sky had done its job.
