Alternative term: Range Lights (U.S.A.)
Two or more lights associated to form one or more leading lines (or ranges).
A leading line defined by two such leading lights is called the axis of the lights. (Fig.47)
Note: In Britain, the axis of the lights is often called the Line of Lights. In German it is called Richtfeuerlinie.
