I spent a few hours on the LHR ramp last week waiting for a De-icer truck for a munich bound morning Luft-bus, they're a rare site to an Aussie Traveller, how many trucks are there for an Airport as big as LHR?

Well, let's say that it isn't certainly in the ratio of 1:1
Depend also on the time of the day and the temperature, generally early morning flights are the most likely to get de-icing. Immagine all those early departures, all those frozen A/C that have been sitting on the ground with all that cold for the whole night...
In my opinion is better late but safe! ;)
