Do airplanes have headlights?

Published in Airplane Lighting 1 min read

While airplanes don't have headlights in the traditional sense like cars, they do have various lights for different purposes.

Here's a breakdown:

  • No Traditional Headlights: Airplanes don't have lights that function exactly like car headlights.
  • Landing Lights: According to provided reference material, airplanes do have "landing lights employed by the flight deck on approach to an airport," which are the closest equivalent to automotive headlights.

Therefore, while not technically "headlights," airplanes have lights that serve a similar function during landing.
