conform to MIL-L-27686. The additive provides anti-icing protection and also functions as a biocide to kill
microbial growths in aircraft fuel systems. Icing inhibitor conforming to MIL-L-27686 shall be added to
commercial fuel, not containing an icing inhibitor, during refueling operations, regardless of ambient
temperatures. Refueling operations shall be accomplished in accordance with accepted commercial
procedures.
