FrostBuster Training Success: Empowering easyJet Ground Handlers with Precision and Efficiency

11 months ago 29

We are excited to share the successful completion of a recent project that has further solidified our commitment to delivering high-quality training solutions to the aviation industry. In collaboration with easyJet, we developed a bespoke training package focusing on the efficient use of FrostBuster, a trailer-mounted defrosting system designed for both General Aircraft and commercial Airbus A321/Boeing 737-900. Participants with Miles Aviation Consultancy’s training instructor, Dean Court in Naples, Italy 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. Client Testimonial Laura Watson, easyJet’s Ground Operations Seasonal Readiness Manager, shared how pleased she was with our collaboration. "It has been a pleasure working with Simon and the team at Miles Aviation. The process of setting up training for a fairly niche piece of equipment has been extremely smooth with regular updates, and we have received some great feedback from the courses. Thank you!" At Miles Aviation Consultancy, we take pride in our ability to deliver tailored training solutions that meet the unique needs of our clients. Stay tuned for more updates on our ongoing efforts to elevate industry standards.
