No Jim, you don't WANT to get it. Airport owned deicing equipment is not a contractor to any of the airlines that use that airport. It is OWNED by the airport, just like the terminals, or jetways.

If an airline needs deicing from the airport, the airport provides the service as a charge, like a landing fee. They are not contractors.
