In my note on the FAA and FCC requirements for tower lighting
I referenced a book called the Airman's Guide.   Unfortunately
I misremembered the title from 15 years ago and, thanks to
Charley, W1TE, for asking the question, I was forced to look up
the actual name.  (I am NOT a pilot--just LOVE big antennas!)

The book I was referring to is the "Airman's Information Manual"
(Hey, I was CLOSE--it was about 15 years ago.)

For more detailed info on lighting and painting you can check out
this web page.

BTW  This page is about as good and as concise a page as I
have ever seen on government regs like this.   Worth making
a note of it if you plan big antenna towers.

2. An airport under construction, that is the subject of a notice or proposal on file with the FAA, and except for military airports, it is clearly indicated that the airport will be available for public use; or
3. An airport that is operated by an armed force of the United States.
