Standard Specification for Non-Essential Ice Detectors for Aircraft
STANDARD published on 1.2.2026
Why Redline?
A PDF redline is a quick and easy way to compare all of the changes between the current, active standard and the previous version.
With a redline you'll immediately see:
Save Time and Trouble!
With a Redline you no longer have to spend time trying to determine what has changed in the new standard! Redlines save you time and ensure you see what the changes are to the standard.
Price
When you select the "Active + Redline" option you get both documents! Best of all, the cost of an Active + Redline is only slightly more than buying the Active Standard by itself.

This specification establishes the requirements for non-essential ice detection system aspects of airworthiness and design for aeroplanes. The term "aeroplane" as used in this specification was originally conceived for normal category fixed wing aircraft with a certified maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 19,000 lb or less and a passenger seating configuration up to 19 as defined in the Rules. However, these standards may be more broadly applicable, and their usage should not be unnecessarily limited. The installation of a non-essential ice detector is limited to level 1, 2, 3 and 4 Aeroplanes and normal, utility, acrobatic, or commuter category Aeroplanes. This specification prohibits the installation of a non-essential ice detector as a replacement for or modification to an existing Primary or Advisory ice detection system.
