On airplanes equipped with four white navigation lights, in case one or
both of the tail navigation lights in use become(s) inoperative, the
relevant standby tail lamps are activated through a switch located on
the aft ramp hail panel.
ANTI-COLLISION LIGHTS
The anti-collision lights provide illumination for visual recognition and
collision avoidance during all flight/taxi operations. White strobe (anti-
collision) lights are fitted to each wing tip and cone top of the horizontal
stabilizer. The EMB-145XR, in its turn, is provided with only two white
strobe lights, which are located at the winglets.
Red beacon lights are mounted on the upper and lower fuselage. Two
different switches, one for strobe lights and another for the red beacon
lights are located on the overhead panel.
WING INSPECTION LIGHTS
Two inspection lights, one on each side of the fuselage, provide
lighting of the wing leading edge to allow the crew to verify ice
formation. The inspection lights are controlled by a switch located on
the overhead panel.
LOGOTYPE LIGHTS
The logo lights are installed on the underside of the horizontal stabilizer
and are aimed at the vertical fin. They provide adequate illumination of
the airplane’s logo during operation on the ground and in flight. A
switch located on the overhead panel controls the logotype lights.
