What color are taxiway lead-off lights?

• A. Blue and White
• B. Red and Yellow
• C. Green and Yellow
• D. White and Green

Answer: (C)

Lead-off lighting is part of the runway exit guidance, helping pilots leave the runway and join a taxiway without confusion. The color scheme used for this lighting combines green and yellow, with yellow serving to mark the exit path off the runway and green tying into the adjacent taxiway lighting system. This combination provides a clear, distinguishable cue in busy or low-visibility situations, so pilots can smoothly transition from landing to taxiing.

That’s why green and yellow is the best match here — the yellow signals the exit path, while the green ties into the broader taxiway lighting context.
