Interesting Approach By An Electra…

I heard “Cleared to land runway 31” on the scanner but I couldn’t figure out where he was to start with…

Not the best of quality as the light was very poor and it was getting rather dark.

Im going to stick me neck out and say same as cats eyes on roads?

That or they are very strong.

Where was the pics taken btw?

Oh right so its just like cats eyes then but with lights instead off car reflections:D

At PIK the runway edge lights are on stalks, except of course where the links join the runway and at the turning area at the 31 end.

So will it do damage if a plane went over them?

Great sequence of shots! If anything, I’d say the difficult lighting conditions add to the photos. Great stuff.

Interesting selection, especially the last but one shot! two rare aircraft types in one shot, doesn’t happen very often :cool:.
