The lighting provided Includes , 2,000,000, candle-power searchlight . beacons, with flashing course light projectors for indicating the dir ection of the airway, installed at 1 ten mile Intervals. At some places, '. where conditions of the terrain makes it advisable, the beacons are closer together. The purpose is to permit the airplane pilot to be able to sight a beacon at all times. At. an average of thirty-mile In tervals, Intermediate landing fields with , boundary lights and a care taker always on duty, are estab lished for the further assistance of airplane operators. - With these fields, and those being established by municipalities and private own ers, the ."time is not 'far distant, . It Is stated, when there will be a 4 landing field at approximately ev ery ten miles along the main air ways of the nation.
