LIGHTING
Exterior
lighting
consists
of
navigation
lights
on
the
wing
tips
and
stinger,
landing/taxi
lights
located
on
the
left
wing
leading
edge,
or
landing/recognition/taxi
lights
on
left
and
right
wing
leading
edges
if
LED
lights
are
installed,
a
flashing
beacon
mounted
on
top
of
the
vertical
stabilizer,
and
a
strobe
light
on
each
wing
tip.
Two
courtesy
lights
are
recessed
into
the
lower
surfaces
of
each
wing
and
provide
illumination
for
each
cabin
door
area.
The
switch
for
the
courtesy
lights
is
found
on
the
pilot's
overhead
console.
The
rear
dome
light
and
under-wing
courtesy
lights
share
the
same
control
switch.
Pressing
the
rear
dome
light
switch
will
make
the
lights
come
on
and
pressing
it
again
will
make
the
lights
go
out.
All
other
exterior
lights
are
operated
by
switches
found
on
the
lighted
switch
panel
to
the
left
of
the
PFD.
Exterior
lights
are
grouped
together
in
the
LIGHTS
section
of
the
switch
panel.
To
activate
the
BEACON,
LAND
(landing
light),
TAXI
(taxi
light),
NAV,
and
STROBE
light(s),
place
the
switch
in
the
up
position.
Circuit
breakers
for
the
lights
are
found
on
the
lighted
circuit
breaker
panel
on
the
lower
left
instrument
panel,
below
the
PFD.
Circuit
breakers
are
grouped
by
electrical
bus
with
BEACON
and
LAND
on
ELECTRICAL
BUS
1
and
TAXI
or
RECOG/
TAXI
(if
installed),
NAV
and
STROBE
on
ELECTRICAL
BUS
2.
LED
Landing/Taxi/Recognition
lights
(if
installed)
use
a
three
position
switch
labeled
LAND,
RECOG/TAXI,
OFF.
Placing
the
switch
in
the
LAND
(landing
lights)
(up)
position
activates
all
LEDs
on
the
left
and
right
wing
leading
edge
lights
and
is
used
during
takeoffs
and
landings
as
required.
Placing
the
switch
in
the
RECOG/TAXI
(Recognition/Taxi
lights)
(center)
position
with the
airplane
on
the
ground,
activates
the
6
center
LEDs
which
are
covered
with
a
spreader
lens
in
each
light.
When
the
airplane
is
in
flight,
these
6
center
LEDs
in
each
light
pulse
alternately
to
provide
the
recognition
mode.
Recognition
mode
should
be
used
during
day
or
night
flights
to
enhance
visibility
to
other
airplanes.
Since
LEDs
operate
at
lower
temperatures
and
have
longer
service
life,
there
are
no
concerns
that
would
limit
the
operational
time
of
these
lights
either
on
the
ground
or
in
flight.
