Deicing Procedure
 
Hi, I've not had experience with aircraft deicing and just wondering where the deicing starts on an aircraft and what parts are done first to last?

Usually the wing tips are the first to be de-iced, as they can be seen most clearly from the cockpit, to figure out if ice is accumulating again.
Then the wing roots and then the tail section.
If only one truck is available, they may complete one wing (left usually), then start with the other, then tail section.

Good question to ask in July, though... :)
