Your deicing shots are always ***** super, Ken. Up until three weeks ago, our temps here were so mild this winter that there was no need for any aircraft to be deiced. But all that has changed now. Plenty of deicing going on. I've tried to get some deicing shots of the FDX aircraft but because of FDX's ramp location there is no way to get close. I've snapped a couple from way over on the east side but nothing worth sharing. But info worthy of note --- A brand new cargo area is under construction at the southwest corner of the airport. As part of the new construction, the southwest ends of Taxiways Alpha and Bravo are being modified to include a deicing pad. (Putting deicing pads adjacent to the ends of runways is becoming more common and is partly a result of two fatal crashes in which aircraft were deiced but then had to taxi and then hold and by the time they were cleared to go they had iced up again. So having the deicing pads right by the end of a runway permits deicing just before getting cleared to take off.) As a result, when the new cargo area is completed, the freighters will deice quite near the southwest corner of the airport so getting pics similar to yours will be much easier for me.

Thank you for the update on Reno's deicing capabilities. ATW FDX departure generally is immediately after deicing and as you can probably guess, there is generally no waiting - pretty immediate.
I hope the new deicing pad position will afford you some nice photo ops.
I am old enough to remember the Air Florida Crash in the Potomac with icing as a partial cause. And local to Appleton, some passengers were killed on an Air Ontario Flight March 10 1989 in a Fokker F28-1000 Dryden Ont. Construction workers / managers going to a paper mill. 45 survivors - 24 fatalities.
A friend of mine was a charter pilot and he would always fly one of the survivors of that crash. He said he was not fearful of flying - but always wanted to know the weather enroute to his destination.
