putting sequenced flashers at the end of ANY (active) runway was a suggestion i made in the thread discussing the event in question, pilots would sure get used to being reluctant to land somewhere without sequenced flashers. One could even think about putting a day and a night photograph made from the cockpit while on approach into the digital plates.

Regarding FAA airport diagrams approach lighting would sure be a nice touch. To be fair the jeppesen airport diagrams have the approach lighting depicted and i assume that were the charts used? (ofc one does not necessarily look at an airport diagram when briefing the approach)
CALVERT II/ICAO-2 HIALS, ICAO-compliant configuration 2 High Intensity. The first row of white horizontal lights is 1,000 feet from the runway threshold and is called the decision bar. Operate the SSALR system when the conditions in subparagraph a are not a factor. ALSF-2, Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights configuration 2. The ALSF-2 system allows Category 2 approaches, and includes sequenced flashing lights (the single line of white lights in the foreground). As you deem necessary if not contrary to pilot request. but i didn't even want to comment on that because why shouldn't it be on there is a far better question i have no answer to. ALSF-2/SSALR When the prevailing visibility is 3 / 4 mile or less or the RVR is 4,000 feet or less, operate the ALSF-2 system as follows: As requested by the pilot. it sounded to me like he was arguing it was easy to make the mistake made at SFO because the approach lighting systems are swapped left to right on the chart while the actual chart used in the event doesn't have those swapped boxes.Īnd yes i get your point approach lighting should be on the visual charts. The collective flashing of all lights in the sequenced flasher array gives the appearance of a ball of light traveling toward the runway.Replying to flightdetent who (i think) misread the situation. The flasher are located at 200-foot intervals, in the direction of the approach and along the extended runway centerline, starting at 200 feet beyond the last steady burning light bar beginning at 1600 feet from the runway threshold. The sequenced flasher array consists of five (5) white flashing lamps, commonly referred to as flashers. The threshold light array and steady burning light array are collectively referred to as the approach light field. The remaining two steady burning light bars are offset to the left and right of the extended centerline at the 1,000-foot bar. ALSF-2 REPLACEMENT AND HURRICANE HARDENING AT RUNWAY 26L -GEORGE BUSH INTERCONTINENTAL (IAH), HOUSTON, TX. Seven (7) of the light bars are located at 200-foot intervals, in the direction of the approach and along the extended runway centerline, starting beyond the runway threshold.
The steady burning light array consists of nine (9) sets of five (5) aviation white steady burning light sources called light bars. The threshold light array consists of 18 to 33 aviation green steady burning lights depending on runway width, arranged in a line at and parallel to the threshold of the runway. The MALSR system consists of a Threshold Light, Steady Burning Light, and Sequenced Flasher. MALSRs consist of a combination of steady burning light bars and flashers that provide pilot's visual information on runway alignment, height perception, roll guidance, and horizontal references to support the visual portion of an instrument approach. The MALSR is a medium-intensity approach lighting system (ALS) installed in airport runway approach zones along the extended centerline of the runway.
