g. Floodlights. Floodlights may be used to
illuminate the TLOF, the FATO, andor the parking area. To eliminate the need for tall poles, these floodlights may be mounted on adjacent buildings. Care should be taken, however, to place floodlights clear of the TLOF, the FATO, the Safety Area, and the approach departure surfaces and any required transitional surfaces. Care should be taken to ensure that floodlights and their associated hardware do not constitute an obstruction hazard. Floodlights should be aimed down and provide a minimum of 3-foot candles 32 lux of illumination on the apron surface. Floodlights that might interfere with pilot vision during takeoff and landings should be capable of being turned off.h. Lighting of Obstructions. See paragraph
411. 411. MARKING AND LIGHTING OF OBSTRUCTIONS. Marking and lighting of obstructions within the approach departure airspace is discussed in paragraph 108b. This paragraph discusses marking and lighting of obstructions in close proximity but outside and below the approach departure surface.a. Background. Unmarked wires, antennas,
poles, cell towers, and similar objects are often difficult to see, even in the best daylight weather, in time for a pilot to successfully take evasive action. While pilots can avoid such objects during en route operations by flying well above them, approach and departure require operation near the ground where obstacles may be in close proximity.b. Airspace. If difficult-to-see objects
penetrate the object identification surfaces illustrated in Figure 4-16, these objects should be marked to make them more conspicuous. If operations are conducted at a heliport between dusk and dawn, these difficult-to-see objects should be lighted. Guidance on marking and lighting objects is contained in AC 707460-1, Obstruction Marking and Lighting. The object identification surfaces in Figure 4-16 can also be described as follows: 1 In all directions from the Safety Area, except under the approach departure paths, the object identification surface starts at the Safety Area perimeter and extends out horizontally for a distance of 100 feet 30.5 m. 2 Under the approach departure surface, the object identification surface starts from the outside edge of the FATO and extends horizontally out for a distance of 800 feet 244 m. From this point, the object identification surface extends out for an additional distance of 3,200 feet 975 m while rising on a 8:1 slope 8 units horizontal in 1 unit vertical. From the point 800 feet 244 m from the FATO perimeter, the object identification surface is 100 feet 30.5 m beneath the approach departure surface. 3 The width of the safety surface increases as a function of distance from the Safety Area. From the Safety Area perimeter, the object identification surface extends laterally to a point 100 feet 30.5 m outside the Safety Area perimeter. At the upper end of the surface, the object identification surface extends laterally 200 feet 61 m on either side of the approach departure path.c. Shielding of
