Headlights on!
On 10 December last I captured UAL 901 (N178UA) on a NAPSI departure
Surprisingly it still has it's headlights on. Is this normal or is it a normal
procedure. Comments appreciated.
Regards,
Rob

Re: Headlights on!
I don't know the procedures at UAL, but i heared that most airlines keep the lights on untill passing FL100, just like the seatbelt signs etc...Selcal wrote:On 10 December last I captured UAL 901 (N178UA) on a NAPSI departure
