Aircraft Identification at Night

The following diagrams show aircraft light configurations as observed at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport over the last three years. While these are the "normal" configurations that I have observed, there are exceptions.
The information presented below is for use by spotters only. Pilots should consult official information via the Federal Aviation Administration.

Yet to be added: Airbus 300/310; DC-8; Dornier 328JET; Avro RJ-85.
