Thanks Bob.............

The flight history shows this aircraft being much under-utilized.
Great photograph of de-icing operations.

I recall my father in law telling me how they would de-ice the wings on Frontier/Western aircraft back in the 1950's 1960's at SLC. The ground crews would use a length of thick hawser rope thrown over the wing and 2 men would see-saw it across the length of the wing breaking up the ice and snow.
