Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This CASA direction lets Australian‑registered aeroplanes replace the anti‑collision light required by subregulation 196(3) with a flashing white strobe that is visible in all directions within 30° above and below the aeroplane’s horizontal plane.

It affects operators/owners and CASA oversight: operators may fit the strobe instead of the prescribed light but bear responsibility and cost to ensure and demonstrate the strobe meets the visibility condition.
