adam16068@yahoo.com Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 The Eiffel Tower is supposed to have a red beacon on the top so the lights midway up can light up at night. When the drop zone was completed they changed the beacon on the Eiffel Tower to complement the one on the Drop Zone? I do not like it to have a white one flashing after sun down. If you notice above the arcs above the obsevation deck and the elevator shaft where the summit is there are eight rectangular beacons that should be flashing. The one at the top should be red with a slow flash. Are you in favor in having the old beacon flashing or have both white beacons flashing simultaneoulsy? Should the needle be lengthend or shortened further? I am concerned about the eight red ones 165 feet up from the ground. Is anyone concerned about the lighting conditions of the Eiffel Tower? Quote
Captain Nemo Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I can see it when I take off in the airplane. It is fine. Quote
PKI_Diana Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 No I'm not. There's more safety and security things on that thing than you think. Quote
harvesterofyoursorrow Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 Diana, are you alwase up in the tower? Quote
PKI_Diana Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 If I'm working in the park, I'm either on the Tower or the Carousel, right next to it. I know it's Beastbuzz today, but I am off, I may see everyone later though. Quote
HomerJay Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I'm not worried about the lighting on the Eiffel Tower. I figure when it comes to regulations and stuff like that, the park probably knows what it's doing. And honestly, I have to admit that obsession is taken to a new low when you're noticing different lights at the top of the towers! Quote
UncleHenry Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 Yeah people, seriously. Lights on tower? As long as it's function is still done, it's good in my book. Quote
Vortex Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 The reason the light is on the Eiffel Tower is so a air plane does not fly in to it. Also you can see one on drop zone for the same reason. If you goto CP TTD has the same lights on the top also. Quote
Captain Nemo Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 Alot of radio towers have the same thing. Anything tall that can pose a threat to airplanes has one of those lights. Quote
