         I'm guessing, but I suspect that the DAR didn't know any other way 
of not allowing the dim position lights. It is unlikely that he would have 
the proper lightmeter to prove the lights were substandard. (I think I'm 
the only one that ever actually measured the light output. I suspect that 
GS-Air never measured the light output.)

         No one has reported a problem so far with FAA inspection of my 
lights. Quite the opposite, in fact. I have sold hundreds of them. The main 
reason for this is that they are REALLY bright to the eye. When you look at 
them, there is no question in your mind that they are bright enough to meet 
specs. My lights put out more than the required amount of light.

         I was worried that this sort of thing would happen with the GS-Air 
lights. It makes all LED lights look bad.

         What a mess.
