- Hey all!
Welcome to our latest video! As you might have seen we are just back home after a amazing @airportfra trip this week.
We arrived at monday, starting the day with rain. But slowly the rain converted into heavy snowfall. For over 9 hours of non stop snow action gave us the oppertunity to film the best action right in front of us.
A lot of new content had been filmed this trip. But first enjoy this 34 minute de-icing video!
Thank you all so much for watching! If you like our content, Please feel free to hit that like and subscribe button!

A little information about N*ICE. The de-icing company that is working at the airport to make sure every aircraft is leaving in a safe and ice free way!
Frankfurt has a large capacity of de-icing trucks.
17x Vestergaard Elephant BETA de-icing truck with a capacity of 8000L. One 4000L water tank and two fluid tanks of 2000L
34x Vestergaard Elephant BETA-15 de-icing truck with a capacity of 8000L. One 4000L water tank and two fluid tanks of 2000L
2x Vestergaard Elephant BETA 15 XXL de-icing truck with a capacity of 12.000L. One 5000L water tank one 4000L fluid tank and another 3000L fluid tank
2x Vestergaard Elephant My de-icing trucks with a capacity of 7600L. One 3600L water tank and two fluid tanks of 2000L
The fluid comes out of the nozzle with a temperature of 55-80C or 130-180F!
The amount of de-icing fluid that is required for a Boeing 747 with only frost on it is around 400 Liters. If it is fully covered in snow it takes around a whopping 1000 Liters.
The fluids that are being used are De-icing fluid and Anti-icing fluids.
(Type-I) The De-icing fluid is the orange fluid being used.
The Anti-icing fluids are coming in three different varieties.
(Type-II) The clear fluid, This fluid is used on smaller aircrafts with very little ice and retains its effect for the least long.
(Type-III) The Yellow fluid, This fluid used on short-mid-long range aircraft and has a sufficient holdover time, just like the Type-I
(Type-IV) The Green fluid, High Viscosity, Long holdover time.

Respect for staying in the freezing weather to do the video🙌
Thank you so much🙌🏼 it was a pleasure🤩
Phenomenal footage. Thank you for posting this. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you so much🙌🏼
Lufthansa, my favourite airline 💙💛🇩🇪
I have watched hundreds of aircraft videos, but none like this. The roar of the engines with the snowfall and all the de-icing going on, made this video very special. As the very first aircraft (Lufthansa 747-8) came up, I got goosebumps.
I’m glad you liked it so much, i must admit we had the excact same feeling when we saw this 747 taxing towards us
Ruido de motor malo❤❤️💯🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷💚❤️✈️✈️✈️
Awesome shots! Winter and snowfall is such a challenging time for flight operations. Well handled by the airport staff and flight crews! ❄
It really was! Over 8 hours of non stop snowfall, the de icing platform was full the whole day🤩
Only time of the year where aircraft turns green (deicing) 😁
Beautiful capturing ❤
Thank you for this amazing video. These big birds look so great.
Thank you so much🙌🏼🙌🏼
Amazing Videos! Thank you! Greatest!
Thank you so much🙌🏼
Katrin, nice to meet you here again. Have a wonderful Christmas time! 🕯️🌲✈️. 🐅
Captivating photography, and a curious perspective onto the operations in commercial aviation...!
Amazing footage TY for sharing this! Ah in sunny 70's Houston. Gosh I really miss Germany! Loved the snows.
Thank you so much🙌🏼 it was a real pleasure filming this🤩
Good work
Much appreciated 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love winter even a such as on this video!! ❄☃
Greetings from the very north of Scandinavia!!
Just like we do🙌🏼 winter is so so good🤩 cheers💪🏼
@@AmsterdamAviationYT
It's a blessing that Lufthansa keeps alive the 747, what a pleasure is to spot it. 💪. Congrats on the video, very nice! The Air China one looks great too, and see what a massive beast the 380 is, impressive. Great shots
Thank you so much🙌🏼 and yeah it is a real blessing Lufthansa is still flying the Queen of the Skies
This has to be one of the best airport videos I have seen. Great location, great descriptions, snow, deicing and 747s!!! Well done!
Thank you so much🙌🏼🙌🏼 those words mean a lot to us
747 always stands out, what a beautiful plane.
Great video.
That because its the Queen🫅
Thank you for filming such a great video!!❤
Much appreciated, it’s our pleasure 🙌🏻 part 2 including de-icing will be uploaded around Friday, Saterday 🙌🏻
My respect to take such beautiful pictures of interested parties in this weather on the Rhine/Main, and then so close to the 747, my favorite aircraft. Thank you very much. Best wishes to the Netherlands and have a wonderful Christmas! 🕯️🌲✈️👍. 🐅
Very much appreciated for your kind words, we hope you have a wonderful Christmas to! 🎄🙌🏻
Amazing video 😍😍😍😍 Frankfurt is my favourite airport!!!! ✈️✈️✈️✈️😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much🙌🏼 Frankfurt is high on our list as well💪🏼
@@AmsterdamAviationYT I love Zagreb, Split, Bangkok and Amsterdam too ✈️✈️✈️✈️😍😍😍😍 lots of greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷❤️❤️❤️❤️
cool
Real Nice.
Thanks💪🏼
Wonderful captures.
Much appreciated 🙌🏻🙌🏻
As someone who lives down under deicing is such a foreign concept!
Its something magical in our opinion🤩
Wonderful 🫶👍
Much appreciated 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
hi from australia thank you
Welcome from The Netherlands, your welcome 🙌🏻
Enjoyed watching your video.Good work❤
Thank you for your kind words, and we have a lot more to yet come out 🙌🏻
Great video!
Thank you so much🙌🏼
Impressive german's engineering and precision. Great video, Job well done ❤
Much appreciated, and indeed very professioneel employees at Fraport 🙌🏻
As always, awesome video!
Much appriciated🙌🏼🙌🏼
Awesome video, so up close and personal
Thank you so much🙌🏼 it was a pleasure making it!
I was waiting for this video brother, beautiful video
Thanks you buddy🙌🏼 more coming up in the next few weeks
This remind me to fly to France but than we are looking to the others has been stoked and reserved and we don't know any one in France.
As a retired aircraft dispatcher (USA), winter ops are something I don't miss. Fluid mixtures, holdover times, performance penalties, runway condition and braking action reports, crosswind and landing limits--it's now some other dispatchers turn to deal with it..
Totally can understand that fact😜 but a great show to watch🙌🏼
Isn’t it code 89, ATC delay? 😂 We always tried to push the delay to ATC for the airlines or bad weather, was one of the first things I learned as a Dispatcher 😜
❤❤❤❤
Was stationed in Germany (Ramstein, Airbase) USAF "76-78" Refueling Unit!!🇺🇲 #Memories👌
Glad to here this brings back some memories for you, any great story’s about Rammstein? 🫡
@@AmsterdamAviationYT Best 2 years of my life, great assighnment great people. Took the oath after H.S. and by the time I hit 21 yrs. old I had been around the 🌎 world, not bad for a young man my age. Went from boyhood to manhood pretty quick😂, and really enjoyed working the flightline making sure our aircraft ✈️🛫 ( Cargo/ Fighters & Choppers) are prepared to scramble at a moment's notice!! Shoutout to the 86th Tactical Fighter Wing (USAFE HEADQUARTERS)🇺🇲Hooah💪!! Thank you for your response!!
🤜🤛👍
This reminds me of New England but sadly we are not getting that much snow.
Well we are also not always as lucky as this, but we are not complaining now we have it 😜
great video👍👍
Thanks buddy🙌🏼
Wat een super dikke video man! Liked!
Dankjewel topper. 🙌🏻🙌🏻
That is some determination! The quality is fantastic, what equipment are you using?
All of this has been filmed with the Sony RX-10
Thanks for the answer! You have a new subscriber
Thank you and welcome to the Channel 🙌🏻
i am amazed how much de-icing fluid those trucks hold? seems like small truck tanks but they can do planes all day?
They do refuiling every now and then😄
wow
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Amazing video...I have so many questions hope someone can answer, are there passengers on board during the de-icing, why was the king & queen the only aircraft fully de-iced as the top of the fuselage on the dreamliners looked untouched, how long does the de-icing last, are the vehicles manned by drivers in the cabs, are the pilots and de- icing crew talking during the process or is it a standard procedure, what's the different type of fluid....really fascinating to see, loved all the Queens...and interesting that the ice showed the ribs in the fuselage
That are a lot os Question haha!
1. Yes the passengers are onboard while De-icing
2. Tbh i have no idea, I think someone can explain that to us.
3. The de-icing process takes 30~45 min depending what Aircraft type it is, and basically they only need it for takeoff due to the accumulation of ice on the control service.
4. Depends of which airport, but these trucks are indeed operated by the driver in the cabin, but you also got the oldschool trucks with 1 person in the bucket and the other one driving.
5. They got a special frequency for de-icing, basically their own ATC which tell’s the pilots to hold and when they are ready.
6. I believe they use different fluids, they green one is more expensive and only used for control service areas ( wings, tail, vertical stabilizer ) the yellow one is less expensive and is used on the fuselage to basically just remove the layer of ice.
I hope this helps 😜
Planes generally de-ice at the gate or at the pad, depending on the aircraft. (Look at an airport like ORD which has a big deicing pad that is generally used for smaller planes, while big planes get deiced at the gate.)
I think the top of the aircraft is not deiced (sometimes) because it is not the 'critical' surface for the flight. On the other hand it can be critical if there is a ton (additional weight) of snow/ice on top of the plane. For light snow dusting at the fuselage top, it jut may not be worth wasting the fluid...
That’s a great answer, I indeed think it’s about the extra weight it can add!
@@TheLewistownTrainspotter8102I doubt aircraft get de-iced at the gate.
There is a ton of people on the ground around a gate. There are fuelers, baggage handlers, caterers, authority, pilots doing the walk-around etc. Loads of activity around an aircraft at the gate. And de-icing fluid is hot glycol at around 90 degrees, so it is both very toxic and very hot. Way to dangerous to do it at the gate.
You would have to clear a giant area around the gate to do the de-icing. And that would occupy the parking space, which is far too valuable. Much better to de-ice at a designated platform
Man, you sure did find a sweet spot to record all this action!
Thank you so much🙌🏼🙌🏼
May I ask you where that second Vietnam Dreamliner went to?@@AmsterdamAviationYT
I know Vietnam flies from Frankfurt to both Hanoi and Ho Chi Ming City so my guess is one of those 2
Wow impressiv! What Camera do you use? is that really the Sony RX10??? how ? i have the same Camera and i think if i would do this this wouldnt look like this 😐 do you use for all your videos the Sony RX10? or other cameras? and if not what im doing wrong ?xD with the settings? this looks so clear ? a little bit rain or a bit fog and my camera wouldnt focus right..
Thanks in advance! Best regards!
Amazing video! thumps up!
Thank you so much🙌🏼 and yes most of it is filmed with the RX-10! But dont get fooled, there is so much light coming of the lightpoles on the de icing platform that it is almost like you are standing there in daylight. But apart from that, no special settings were used😁 but for nighttime we rather use our Nikon gear!
Cheers🙌🏼
@@AmsterdamAviationYT but its so clear the footage 😅 how or when you zoom in
Do you zoom a lot afterwards in the Programm like after effects or do you zoom manually ? Because when I zoom in it does not Look so clean you know what I mean? 😅
And one more question ? Handheld or with a tripod ?
Thank you so much!
Best regards!
We dont zoom the full length! And all tripod😁
Masha Allah absolutely has another spectacular beautiful footage and the sound of the plane is a killer and a big fat boom masterpiece works and you nailed it again .. keep it up Sir and stay warm .. gorgeous filming edition settings presentation and the blowing snow catch it all, super awesome super amazing and super cool .. Merci beaucoup Monsieur ..
Much much appreciated and thanks for your kind words 🙌🏻
Sir please make big plane videos at this angle here I can see how much planes are massive 😊😊
Multiple FRA videos on our channel filmed at this point😃
@@AmsterdamAviationYT I watched all those video and I want some new video 😁 . Love from india
This is the same snowstorm that shut down Munich Airport.
This was a few days before that!😁
I hope it’s as good as the livestream 🥵
And was it good enough😏?
@@AmsterdamAviationYT 10 out of 10! 🤩
I'm new at this but if the have safety rods on the boom arms why are they so high? Would it no be bettet if they were closer, and would it not save on the fluid? The only reason I can see that they stay so high is, the they have a better vantage view but, would it not be jus the same if they got closer.
Better safe then sorry i think haha, plus when they lift the boom higher up the fluid spreads over a larger area😄
Never understood this way
Should have Hangers by the runway everything is mechanical
Planes go in Adapts to thr aircraft size
10 min later Done 👍🏴
Que frio😂
-2c
Btw ... Who pays for the de-icing service ?
The Airlines themselves
Does this liquid stain the aircraft, or does it come off completely once the aircraft takes flight?
Somebody please comment...thank you
It sticks on the aircraft! Depending on what kind of fluid their using there is a time how long it stains
I think it sticks - up to the certain speed ... I think the liquid sticks and is very much useful at takeoff (critical) and initial climb. Once aircraft is up to speed and in cruise, I think the deicing fluid is gone, and the deicing is done by leading edge heating and also by engine (nacelle?) heating from within...
32:25 all those planes waiting for maybe hours and then, yeah sorry where going back to the gate.
That Lufthansa 747-8 was standing there at least for 1,5h 😳
@@AmsterdamAviationYT insane. I would go crazy if i was a passenger on that plane
@lars_geurts45 haha so do we😂
JimmyTan
❤❤❤❤🤲🤲🤲🤲🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰💞💞🤲🤲🤲
what?? 38 minutes for de-icing a 747? That's impossible. If it really took that long, the wings would have been covered in snow and icy again! 10 minutes tops!
That 747 had a full de-icing bath, the entire plane got a de-icing from top to bottom and they didn’t miss a single spot!
fair enough. Pretty crazy though, the HOT of type IV is almost zero after this time from what I read. If the plane can't immediately depart, it has to do it all over again :D@@AmsterdamAviationYT
I love aircraft but the harm to the environment is immense and not necessary.
Then what you suggest for travelling on the long ranges in just some hours?
@@AboutPlanes I suggest a lot less air travel. Most of it is needless recreation. Flights to attend climate change conferences should be the first Flights outlawed by the green new deal democrats are pushing. Eventually if the climate is truly in trouble air travel will have to be almost completely eliminated. So will shipping everything we use all over the globe. Products will have to be made locally and sold locally like it was before globalism took over . If none of these measures are taken by climate saviors the there never was a climate disaster.
Don’t forget that aviation is trying it’s best to be greener. And will I do agree a lot of short flights should be replaced by train, the infrastructure is still not ready and is not going to be ready for a long time. Long haul flights will never go away, and also don’t forget how much cargo is being transported by air
@@AmsterdamAviationYT yeah, here I would agree with you. Recently, I also heard about Emirates’ first sustainable fuel flight!
@@MR-xc3sw I think air travel will become even more expensive in the future due to climate changes, that airtravel causes. So, it will reduce the emissions very much I think
Goed video! 👏
Thank you so much🙌🏼
