Dual-Colored Declared Distance Lighting Fixture Evaluation

Several dual-color (Red/Blue) runway edge lighting configurations, to define pre-threshold and post-runway end
segments of declared distance runways, were evaluated at four different airports. At three airports (BGM, BWI and
ACY) the lighting configurations were in accordance with the FAA Great Lakes Region memorandum providing
"Guidance on Declared Distance Standards". An additional test installation at the Millville, NJ (MIV) airport permitted
the evaluation of different color configurations to designate areas restricted to "taxi only", "takeoff, but no landing", and
"rollout only" maneuvers.
