Project Overview: Tailored Training for easyJet Ground Handlers
Our dedicated team at Miles Aviation crafted an innovative training package exclusively for easyJet’s ground handlers. This comprehensive program, based on applicable SAE standards, covered both theoretical principles and practical applications. The goal was to equip ground handlers with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively utilise FrostBuster in their daily operations.
Following the development of the tailored training material, Dean Court, one of our experienced instructors, conducted the course at two key locations – GH Italia in Naples and LAS Maintenance in Porto. A total of 40 staff members participated in the training sessions, which took place on the 13th-15th and 18th-19th of December.
FrostBuster: Innovation in Deicing Technology
Manufactured by ACF GSE in Lasham, UK, FrostBuster has proven to be a game-changer for easyJet. This trailer-mounted system, featuring a 250-litre fluid tank, a 12-volt battery system, and a 240-volt AC immersion heater for fluid heating, is designed specifically for type 1 fluid. Its remarkable performance has proven to be an On-Time Performance (OTP) differentiator for easyJet’s first wave. FrostBuster rapidly eliminates light contamination, such as frost, even at stations not typically associated with cold weather conditions, ensuring safe, on-time departures.
