SIXTY YEARS OF SOVIET AVIATION GROUND LIGHTING ENGINEERING

60 LET RAZVITIYA SOVETSKOI NAZEMNOI AVIATSIONNOI SVETOTEKHNIKI

The main characteristics of the airport lighting equipment developed, made, and operated in the USSR over the last 60 years are given. LIkewise, the most important research works comprising theoretical justification of the accepted parameters of the light signaling equipment for airports, developed and operated in the country, are set forth. In addition, criteria for the evaluation of the difficulties of landing according to the ICAO categories and the illuminating engineering characteristics of the light signaling equipment for all the categories of landing difficulties according to ICAO are pointed out.
