Available lighting is normally supplemented with a direct source of lighting at an intensity deemed appropriate by the inspector (i.e., the person performing the inspection).
                 Inspection aids such as mirrors, magnifying glasses, etc., may be used. Surface cleaning and elaborate access procedures may be necessary.

If any damage of the taxi light assembly is detected during the inspection performed in accordance with Requirement 1 of this Directive, replace the existing taxi light assembly with a new or serviceable taxi light assembly in accordance with the applicable maintenance manual. If the existing taxi light assembly is replaced with a Grimes Aerospace taxi light assembly having P/N 50-0199-9, 50- 0199-11, 50-0128-1A, 50-0128-1MA, 50-0128-3A or 50-0128-3MA; no further action is required by this Directive.
