The manual is divided into two parts: Part 1 - for aircrew and groundcrew; Part 2 - additional information for ground crew. The final chapter contains questions that any operator may utilize for their ground icing program examination. The references for each question are listed to assist with answers. The Holdover Tables (HOT) included in the appendix are solely for the use with the examination questions and must not be used for operations.
