Captain Lars Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Hi, I recently purchased Brisbane YBBN (last transaction-ID in my signature) and the blue taxiway edge lights are missing. The green ones and runway lights are there. I already deleted the txt.-file in the "Versions" folder to install it again, but to no avail. Thank you in advance Lars Wüst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petfy Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I am not quite sure, but I think that in reality Australian airports do not have edge lighting on taxiways. Perhaps others could comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps others could comment. AIP Australia as of May 2017 states (1.1 - 26, 5.10.1): Quote Two types of taxiway lighting are used: a. Edge Lighting: fixed lights showing blue on both sides of the taxiway. b. Centreline Lighting: fixed lights showing green along the centreline of the taxiway I'm not an expert on English legal language. Does that mean either blue OR green?

Nick Cooper Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Hello, the colour is less important than the description. It means: Edge lighting is placed at the edges, both sides. If they are edge lights, they are blue. Centre line lighting is not placed at the edges but is instead in the middle. If they are centre line lights, they are green.

OK, thank you very much. It seems that this is actually not a mistake. I checked Melbourne (green lights only), Cairns (green lights and blue lights), and Sydney by FlyTampa (green lights and only some blue lights in the apron area). I'm sorry! This thread can go to "solved" or whatever. Regards Lars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
