Lights on Antennas

Recommended Posts

Guest Pepe

This isn't a big deal because I rarely fly the at night but I flew a short VFR flight in the Cub today. Not that the cub has IFR options. I flew in an area where I live so I know where the landmarks are fairly well. Something I noticed was that the red flashing lights on the tops of tall antenna towers are very dim even when flying a few hundred feet above them. The real lights can be seem several miles away on the ground.Anyone know of a way to brighten them up just a bit?The rotating airport beacons, and two white strobes at the end of some (small) runways can be seem for several miles. The two airports I was flying between were about 17 miles apart and the airport light are visible shortly after takeoff.Thanks,Pepe
