The arrangement, sizes, and kinds of airport beacons necessary if aircraft landings are to be made in conditions of poor visibility are discussed. The amount of candlepower needed for a given visibility range is derived. Installation of the beacons, in terms of arrangement with respect to lane markers and angle with the horizontal, and also with respect to the kind of construction used for the runway, is described.
