ASTM F3120/F3120M-20(Specification)
Standard Specification for Ice Protection for General Aviation Aircraft

ABSTRACT
This specification provides international standards for ice protection aspects of airworthiness and design for ”general aviation” aircraft. The applicant for a design approval must seek the individual guidance of their respective civil aviation authority (CAA) body concerning the use of this standard as part of a certification plan.
The standards cover: types of aircraft operational requirements; crew external visibility (windshields and windows); ice shedding (engine inlet ice ingestion, propeller ice shedding, airframe ice shedding, ice protection system failure considerations); engine installation and induction system ice protection (propellers, turbine engines in flight, turbine engines on ground).
Also addressed in this specification are instrumentation ice protection, flight into icing conditions, aircraft not approved for flight in icing, and atmospheric icing conditions.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers international standards for ice protection aspects of airworthiness and design for “general aviation” aircraft.  
1.2 The applicant for a design approval must seek the individual guidance of their respective civil aviation authority (CAA) body concerning the use of this specification as part of a certification plan.
