The Clinic team must continue development of an LED lighting system to replace the incandescent bulbs currently used for the Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System (MALSR) and the Approach Lighting System with Sequenced Flashing Lights (ALSF2). The team must integrate these LED systems into the available airport power source, collect data on LED characteristics, and provide prototypes for the MALSR and ALSF2 systems.
