Unusual de-icing method?

Found this online:

Turkish Airlines' DIY De-Icing Method Does Not Inspire A Lot Of Confidence - Digg

I wonder where this is. And isn't de-icing an airport service, not provided directly by the airline?

Reminds me of a prat in Eilat chucking hot water over one of our wings because he thought it would remove frosting caused by over six tonnes of fuel at -15C :*

To be fair to Eilat town airport, the above happened at Ovda.
The orig was just too attractively alliterate. ;)

This topic has been discussed in another thread, as DaveReidUK shows. However, that thread has been closed by my colleagues, so I expect that it is being discussed in a technical forum. So do have new information before posting here!
