    What an intriguing title, "Airport Lighting - You Must Know [ATC for You]!" It's fantastic to see content that delves into the specifics of airport operations, especially something as crucial as lighting. Airport lighting plays such a vital role in guiding pilots during takeoff and landing, and it's fascinating to learn more about how these systems work to ensure safety and efficiency in air travel. The inclusion of ATC (Air Traffic Control) in the title suggests a comprehensive look into how air traffic controllers and lighting systems work in harmony. It's great to see educational content like this that sheds light on the complexities of aviation! 🛫💡🌌

      The ironic thing is this is what YT was supposed to support more of. It's sad more videos are incredibly shorter now because of TikTok and Snapchat.
      The new trends with "shorts" seems like it's taking off. But ngl, I enjoy this way more

      Do you know of any existing automated software that can check these lights based of imaging? Or do all airports check if the light work manually by a person?

      @@alexandrugeorge1573 There is a system called ALCS, “ airfield lighting control system”. The system also monitors all airfield lighting circuits. All the leading airfield lighting manufacturers have systems very similar to one another. These are the two I am most familiar with, ADB Airfields Solutions and Crouse-Hinds. There are more world wide.
      Airports still generally have inspections daily and nightly for compliance with FAA standards. The computer systems are a big help with other circuit monitoring such as Meg readings and supply equipment monitoring and provides alarm status to help with monitoring unmanned airports when uncontrolled.

    At Boston Logan, I’ve noticed a new style of runway lights in the last few years. I’m not sure what they’re called but when an aircraft is taking off or landing on an intersecting runway, red lights will illuminate on the runway surface. It’s really interesting, I’m not sure exactly how it operates and I’ve only noticed it recently

      Those narrow-banded blue ones trigger some sort of emotional response in me. Can't say just what emotion. Want to sit still and stare at them. This may be related to their being out of focus. The eyes are better at centering the focus on yellow and red lights, and not so good with blue. Just in the optics alone, leaving out the nervous system and the muscles, the focal point for blue light is not in the same place as that for the longer waves.
