Runway end identifier lights
Runway end identifier lights (
REIL) are installed at many
airports to provide rapid and positive identification of the approach end of a particular
runway. The system consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights located laterally on each side of the runway threshold. REILs may be either omnidirectional or unidirectional facing the approach area. They are effective for:
- Identification of a runway surrounded by a preponderance of other lighting
- Identification of a runway which lacks contrast with surrounding terrain
- Identification of a runway during reduced visibility
Airport Runway End Identifier Lighting (REIL)
