AIRFIELD LIGHTING ELECTRICAL ASSESSMENT

1. Understanding Current State of Airfield Electrical Infrastructure

Purpose:

This survey is designed to help the industry better understand the current state of Airport Owned/Maintained Lighting and Electrical Installations. Individual responses to questions will not be published or released to 3rd parties with any identifying information of participants or airport. Analysis of survey results will be used and may be published based on size and type of airport (without any identifying information included).
