Why are taxiway lights and markings so important?

Objectives Understand Airfield Layouts Know how runways are numbered Know how runways & taxiways are marked – by day and night Know how approach lights guide an aircraft into land

Modern Main Instrument Runway

Questions ?

Questions What does “HAS” stand for? What colour are obstruction lights? What colour are threshold lights? How are taxiways marked in daylight? What colours are taxiway lights? What is used on an airfield to show wind direction?

Questions How are runways numbered? True or False: Pilots will usually choose to take off with the wind behind them. What is a “Sterile Area”? How is a Sterile Area marked?
