CS 25.1381 Instrument lights

ED Decision 2003/2/RM

(a)     The instrument lights must –

(1)     Provide sufficient illumination to make each instrument, switch and other device necessary for safe operation easily readable unless sufficient illumination is available from another source; and

(2)     Be installed so that –

(i)      Their direct rays are shielded from the pilot’s eyes; and

(ii)     No objectionable reflections are visible to the pilot.

(b)     Unless undimmed instrument lights are satisfactory under each expected flight condition, there must be a means to control the intensity of illumination.
