For instance, landing lights illuminate the runway and terrain for the pilots during landing and takeoff. Also, they make the plane more visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But all aircraft must have dedicated visibility lights for safety purposes. And within this category, there are anti-collision and navigation lights.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-anticollision-lights\">What are Anti-Collision Lights?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>As the name suggests, the anti-collision light system acts as a collision-avoidance measure by warning other pilots of the plane&#8217;s presence. It consists of the following types.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"beacon-red-anticollision-lighting\">Beacon (Red) Anti-Collision Lighting<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Beacon lights are red flashing lights that alert others either the:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Aircraft engines are running<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plane is moving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So they turn on as soon as the pilots commence the start engine sequence and get turned off when the engine shuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as rotating beacon lights, the red units usually sit at the top of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Rudder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">rudder<\/a> on small planes. But on larger airplanes, they are on the bottom of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fuselage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">fuselage<\/a>. In either case, the red light is visible all-around the aircraft (360&#xB0;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"2f3636\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #2f3636;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/ledask.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2-52-jpg.webp\" alt=\"A plane is flying at night with its red beacon light on under the fuselage.

Note the green navigation light on the right wing.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Older aircraft used xenon beacon lights, but modern Boeing and Airbus planes feature red LED beacons. And it is not a matter of efficiency but brightness. The flashing LED is brighter and beams outwards further than xenon lights, making the aircraft more visible.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"anticollision-lights-vs-position-lights-strobe-white-anticollision-lighting\">Anti-Collision Lights vs. Position Lights: Strobe (White) Anti-Collision Lighting<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Unlike red beacons, the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Strobe_light\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">strobe<\/a> anti-collision light system uses white lights. These units sit on the furthest ends of the wings at the tip. So each plane has two strobe lights and a single beacon light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And they flash like their beacon counterparts but provide 180&#xB0; lighting on either side, highlighting the width of the aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"464d4b\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #464d4b;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/ledask.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/3-52-jpg.webp\" alt=\"An airplane is taking off.

But they are too bright for ground use, especially at night in a busy airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since brightness is crucial for this lighting, most modern aircraft use LEDs.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-position-lights\">What Are Position Lights?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Also known as aircraft <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Navigation_light\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">navigation lights<\/a>, position lights are mandatory for all planes flying at night.
