REFLECTOR: Landing Light Replacement

[Brett Ferrell]

Not that you want to spend the money, and may have already bought, but Xevision
does offer a 4 5/16" Xenon bulb, the one that we've installed (XV-36-SL).

> I hunted long and hard for a 'fix' for the anemic landing light I have.  The
> Xenon/HIDs all seemed to come in 5.5" or 7", which doesn't fit my molded
> mount.  I finally I found a 4 3/4" dia, 110,000 candle light that's not
> nearly as expensive as a Xenon, but fit without modification, so I'm giving
> it a try.  I'll report the results here in a few days.  I also have tinted
> windows--a wonderful thing in the summer- but I'm tired of sticking my head
> out the door at night when its 19F outside.  What I really need is one of
> those big spots those black helicopters use when they're practicing for
> assaulting the world, or whatever it is they're supposed to be up to.
