Airport runway lights, airport signage, also commercial lighting, beacons, mainly stuff from Osram and Thorn, but working with only one of two official distributors in the UK

Peter,

Some of the areas we are involved in, not all.

1. AGL Lights = 'Airfield Ground Lighting' this is a phrase that any maintenance engineer or any one associated with an airport would refer to their lighting which is Airside, i.e.: not in the departure lounge.

2. Papi = The PAPI and APAPI systems using PPL units with either 2 or 3 light channels offer the pilot information enabling him to carry out the approach procedure with the utmost accuracy and safety. (See leaflet attached).


There are a couple of links below which might be useful to you, the ADB one is probably the best as it outlines a runway and indicates what goes where (I use it when I am not sure)

New web site will shortly be on line which is a far cry from the old one.

Aiyub,

Are you out of HVAC/R business and is this perhaps your new job?

I knew these systems - I have an ATPL license and a PPL instructor license - but I wondered why there was a sudden link to these kind of light systems?

Im out of the fridge game, As of Sep 15 I will be a Marketing Consultant full time, but will be working within the HVAC /R industry and also dipping my hands into the Aviation side.

The past two years, have been okay on the fridge side, but my real love is aviation. I was only a little mite..........4 years old, when one day my papa took me to the airport.....

On the tarmac was a Boeing 707..........its engines spooling. The thrill of the whine, the smell of kerosene..........I was hooked.

And I still am , till today. Highlight of my year is always the Royal Air Tatoo held at RAF Fairford...........and Farnborough, when its around

I always tell my freinds........I can quite happily spend the rest of my life............above on an aeroplane.........only touching down to pick up supplies!!!


But its brilliant to know that a fellow member is an ATPL and a PPL instructor no less!!! The qualities of our members has no bounds !! lol

Now u want to hear why I threw in the towel on the fridge side??? It was all to do with a ferret!!!!

My next post will tell all
