Runway end identifier lights

AIRPORT RUNWAY LIGHTING SYSTEM TO AID RAPID IDENTIFICATION OF THE APPROACH END OF A RUNWAY

Runway End Indentification Lighting; REIL; Runway End Identification Lights; Runway End Identifier Lights

Runway end identifier lights (REIL) (ICAO identifies these as Runway Threshold Identification Lights) are installed at many airports to provide rapid and positive identification of the approach end of a particular runway. The system consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights located laterally on each side of the runway threshold.

Runway edge lights

Runway edge lighting are used to outline the edges of runways during periods of darkness or restricted visibility conditions. These light systems are classified according to the intensity they are capable of producing:

Runway edge lights

Runway edge lighting are used to outline the edges of runways during periods of darkness or restricted visibility conditions. These light systems are classified according to the intensity they are capable of producing:

High intensity runway lights (HIRL)
Medium intensity runway lights (MIRL)
Low intensity runway lights (LIRL)

Many HIRL and MIRL systems have variable intensity controls, whereas the LIRLs normally have one intensity setting. At airports where there is a control tower, the tower will manage the lights to account for visibility and pilot preference, but some airports do not have control towers. These airports will have Pilot Controlled Lighting, or PCL, where pilots can adjust the lighting themselves by keying a microphone button a certain number of times.

The majority of runway edge lights are clear or white, but there are some exceptions to provide additional information to pilots in certain circumstances.

When an instrument runway lighting is designed, the last 600 metres (2,000 ft), or one-half of the runway length available (whichever is less), are bi-directional. They look white to the pilot approaching from the short end of the runway, but to a pilot approaching from the other end, who would be landing or taking off in that direction, they are yellow to indicate that the runway is nearing the end.

Examples of use of runway length

1. The Airbus A3800, a huge machine capable of carrying 500 passengers plus, is limited to hub airports with sufficient runway length and supporting infrastructure.

2. It said: "The identification of the lack of thrust occurred at a location which limited the choice of airports to those within gliding range and with adequate runway length available to meet the landing distance required.

3. Establishment of a new airport has been a priority for the Ecuadorean government; the downtown location of the existing airport, Mariscal Sucre International Airport, as well as its short runway length, restricts approach and take–off paths and thus limits aircraft payload and revenue–generating capacity.Â The existing airport currently handles approximately 2.4 million passengers per year, and Ecuador has experienced stronger growth in total freight traffic than the regional average during the 1''0s.
