Abstract
The configuration of high performance modern commercial aircraft vary considerably from one model to another. The location and design of lighting fixtures, particularly for exterior lighting, are affected significantly by these configuration differences. It is important to consider lighting during the early design stages of the airplane to maximize quality and usefulness of the resulting lighting systems. Lighting plays an important part in aircraft safety, crew performance and passenger comfort.
