The external aircraft white lighting was inadequate to illuminate the terrain below and to the side of the aircraft at the required operating height.
The fitment of high‑intensity external lighting will ensure that terrain below and to the side of the aircraft will be adequately illuminated at the required operating height.
TOLL has fitted the high‑intensity Trakka searchlight to all contract aircraft, ensuring adequate lighting is available to illuminate the terrain at the required operating height during NVIS winching.
