This specification covers three types of aircraft position lights.

The information in this document is intended to apply to commercial jet transport category airplanes that incorporate plastic (polycarbonate or acrylic) lenses on exterior light assemblies, or are being considered for such an application as opposed to glass lens designs. Exterior lighting applications include position light assemblies, anticollision light asemblies, and landing light assemblies. However, much of the material provided herein is general in nature and is directly applicable to many aircraft categories including, but not limited to, helicopters, general aviation aircraft, and military aircraft.

This Aerospace Recommended Practice provides guidance for designers and specifiers of aircraft exterior lighting. Typical causes of light degradation and methods of predicting performance degradation in the aircraft environment are given. Although the document considers only exterior lighting, many of the principles and methods discussed apply to interior or flight deck lighting as well.
