Hydroplaning/Aquaplaning - Operation Perspective

Hi Guys,

Just wanna check with you guys, from the operational perspective, how do you go about tackling aquaplaning when approaching a contaminated R/W or taking off from the R/W ?

In a way, by using the suggested formula, 9*sqrt(Tyre pressure(PSI)), and 7.7*sqrt(Tyre pressure(PSI)), what the significance of having the value and any technique to overcome aquaplaning if it actually happens on a slippery R/W, for T/O and LDG ?

Any guys who have experiences aquaplaning so far can share their experiences and the technique they use to overcome it?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Beginner in Jet Aviation
