Section 12. Exterior Lighting
12.5 System Description
12.5.1 Landing Lights
The landing light consists of two 50W High-Intensity Discharge (HID) landing lights,
one located in each of the forward wing root fairings. During ground operation with
the landing light off and the taxi lights activated, the landing light will operate at a
lower intensity to provide additional lighting for taxi. In flight, the landing light will
operate at full intensity.
The landing lights are controlled with a single two-position switch located on the
center switch panel.
A failure of a landing light causes a LANDING LIGHT FAIL advisory message to
appear.
12.5.2 Position /Anti-Collision Lights
Position and anti-collision lights are collocated on a single assembly within the tip
tanks and separately on the horizontal stabilizer fairing and tail cone.
POSITION LIGHTS
Position indication is provided by red and green LED position lights mounted within
the forward dry bay of the wing tip tanks. A white aft facing position light is located on
the horizontal stabilizer fairing. Each light consists of a string of four red, green or
white LEDs.
Position lights are automatic and are illuminated anytime the avionics system is
powered up.
A failure of any of the position lights causes a POSITION LIGHT FAIL advisory
message to appear.
ANTI-COLLISION LIGHTS
Two white LED strobe lights are also located within the forward dry bays on the wings
and one is located within the tail cone. Each anti-collision light fixture is composed of
several strings of six white LEDs.
Anti-collision lighting is controlled with a three-position STROBE/BEACON switch
located on the center switch panel.
A failure of an anti-collision light will cause a STROBE FAIL advisory message to
appear.
12.5.3 Wing Inspection Light
A single 50W halogen wing inspection light located in the left hand wing root fairing is
used to illuminate the left hand wing when operating in suspected icing conditions at
night.
The wing inspection light is controlled with a two-position INSP LIGHT switch located
on the center switch panel.
A failure of the wing inspection light causes an INSPECTION LIGHT FAIL advisory
message to appear.
