Question: Explain centerline lights and standard runway lights

Answer: RW centerline lights are installed on some precision approach runways to facilitate landing under adverse visibility conditions. They are located along the centerline and spaced at 50-ft intervals. When viewed at the landing threshold, the RW centerline lights are white until the last 3,000 ft, then they alternate with red until 1,000, then they are solid red.

The RW edge lights are white, except on instrument runways, yellow replaces white on the last 2,000 ft or half the RW length, whichever is less, to form a caution zone for landings.
