The content of this handbook is the consolidated effort of the Illumination Engineering Society (IES) Subcommittee on General Aviation Lighting, the Center of Excellence for General Aviation Research (CGAR) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Safety Technology Research and Development Visual Guidance Program personnel. The purpose of the content is to generate awareness of an alternative line of products. This alternative line of products represent the visual lighting presentation of the more expensive, fully FAA-approved lighting systems at a reduced cost while still maintaining needed visual cues. This document is comprised of three different sections: Section 1 - Community Service Airport Lighting System Elements, offers a brief introduction to the different types of lighting systems available for the small community airport. Section 2 - describes the lighting elements in more detail including some performance guidelines. Section 3 - covers information on each lighting element so an airport manager can take the necessary steps to outfit a small community airport. The appendices include a brief history of the committee, studies performed for the Remote Airfield Lighting Systems (RALS), Alignment tables for Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI) lights, and Visual Aids.
