PDX-KOA AS855 1/12/17 pilot says it will be about 5 minutes as just the tail and wings need deiced, not the whole a/c.

Jan 7 AS 2442 RNO-SEA on Q400
Seemed like we got a pretty thorough spraying. They boarded us strictly by row because ice and snow kept us from using the rear door.

D'oh. Seems I fell asleep during deicing last night.
ANC-PDX AS134 1/19/17 no idea how long... I Z'd thru it.
Don't think AS855 needs it today.

ANC-PDX AS134 2/4/17 unannounced deicing. Clearly there's something happening out there, but no announcement was made.

AS336, SEA-SJC 8:55pm depature. Full-on deicing, took about 20 minutes. Co-pilot had to come back and look at the wings just before takeoff to ensure they were still ice free.

AS 755 SEA-ANC We waited 2 hours to be deiced. 25 minutes for full plane to be deiced. We waited for a plane behind us to park and then the tug driver had a defective headset. Finally, 4 hours later we made to the runway only to have deicing fail. Now waiting at N2 to push back and be deiced again. Been on the plane for 5 hours now.
