Abstract
NAVIGATION LIGHTS provide the observer with the information required to determine the position or orientation of the aircraft and, thus, its direction of travel, so that a collision avoidance maneuver may be executed. One way to improve the aircraft navigation lights is to increase the intensity of the lights so they may be observed from a greater distance.
