  • These signs indicate directions of other taxiways leading out of an intersection.
    The signs have black inscriptions on a yellow background and always contain
    arrows. The arrows should be oriented to approximate the direction of the tum.
    Locate the direction signs on the far side of the intersecting taxiway with the
    runway, as shown in Figure 10- 28.

  • Runway exit signs should be located prior to the exit on the side of the runway on
    which the aircraft is expected to exit.

  • Size and Location
    Taxiway guidance signs are available in three heights as indicated in Table 10 - 7.
    The choice of a particular size sign involves several factors including effectiveness,
    aircraft clearance, jet blast, and snow removal operations. Normally, the larger the
    sign and the closer it is located to the runway or taxiway edge the more effective it
    is.
