ground surface (measured on a horizontal plane) where, with the landing gear extended, an evacuee using the over-wing emergency exit escape route would normally make first contact with the ground.
       44.4 For a not over-wing emergency exit, illumination of the escape device provided by exterior emergency lighting must be:
(a) illumination of not less than 0.32 lux (measured normal to the direction of the incident light) where, with the landing gear extended, an evacuee using the not over-wing emergency exit would normally make first contact with the ground; and
(b) for each not over-wing emergency exit in the side of the fuselage:
 (i) over a spherical surface 10 degrees to either side of the centre of the escape device; and
 (ii) from 30 degrees above to 5 degrees below the 45-degree position of the escape device.
       44.5 If an escape device is illuminated by an exterior emergency lighting subsystem that:
(a) serves only that escape device; and
(b) is independent of the aeroplane's main emergency lighting system; and
(c) is automatically activated when the escape device is deployed;
       then the subsystem:
(d) must not be adversely affected by the stowage of the device; and
(e) must provide sufficient ground surface illumination that obstacles at the end of the escape device are clearly visible to evacuees.

45 Filed on, and after, 1 May 1972 — exterior emergency lighting for over‑wing
       For an aeroplane whose type certificate application was filed on, or after, 1 May 1972, the exterior emergency lighting must meet the exterior emergency lighting requirements under which the aeroplane was type certificated.

48 Over-wing escape route — requirements
       48.1 An escape route must be established from each over-wing emergency exit of the aeroplane.
       48.2 If the application for the type certificate for the aeroplane was filed before 1 May 1972, the escape route must:
(a) be marked; and
(b) except for flap surfaces suitable as slides, be covered with a slip resistant surface.
       48.3 If the application for the type certificate for the aeroplane was filed on, or after, 1 May 1972, the escape route must meet the slip-resistant escape route requirements under which the aeroplane was type certificated.
