Horizontal Stabilizer Anti-Ice
Horizontal Stabilizer Anti-Ice
(OP)
Does anyone know if there is/was an FAA requirement for thermal, mechanical, or other anti-ice system to be incorporated in the horizontal stabilizer leading edge on commercial aircraft? I haven't been able to find any mention in 2 days of web searching.
I worked on the MD11 HS years ago in the mid 80's and there was a picolo tube tube system installed, but I can't recall if there was a specific FAR req at the time.
TIA

Other categories (inc FAR/JAR 23) have some de-icing / anti icing.
The re-write of AC rules to allow for freezing drizzle will mean they will be forced to look at it again.
