 (b) cabin lighting that enables each occupant of the aeroplane to see and use:
 (i) the occupant's seatbelt and oxygen facilities, if any; and
 (ii) the normal and emergency exits;
 (c) for each flight crew member—an independent portable light accessible to the flight crew member from the flight crew member's normal seat in the aeroplane;
 (d) for each other crew member (if any)—an independent portable light accessible to the crew member at the crew member's crew station.
 (2) Cockpit lighting equipment of an aeroplane operating by night must:
 (a) illuminate each item of equipment that may be used by the flight crew; and
 (b) illuminate the documents that may be used by the flight crew, including checklists and flight documents; and
 (c) be compatible with each item of equipment that may be used by a pilot; and
 (d) be arranged in a way that:
 (i) enables all placards and instrument markings to be read from each pilot's normal sitting position in a pilot's seat in the aeroplane; and
 (ii) each pilot's eyes are shielded from direct and reflected light; and

 (b) for any other aeroplane—from immediately after the engines are started until the time the engines are shut down at the end of the flight.
 (4) For anti-collision light equipment comprising white strobe lights only, the lights must be displayed as follows:
