In KNDZ OPS with civilian airports, what is the lighting configuration?

• A. Anti-collision: ON; position: as req
• B. Anti-collision: OFF; position: as req
• C. Anti-collision: ON; position: ON
• D. Anti-collision: ON; position: not required

Answer: (A)

Anti-collision lights are all about making the aircraft conspicuous to other traffic. When operating at civilian airports, you turn these lights on to help others see you, especially in busy airspace or near runways. Navigation (position) lights are managed by time of day and conditions: they’re required when visibility is reduced or it’s dark, and may not be needed during broad daylight unless local procedures say otherwise. So the practical setup is anti-collision lights ON, and navigation lights ON as required by time of day or regulations. That’s why this configuration is the correct one.
