I changed the bulb before I had a failure.  I did so for two reasons.  First, I wanted to try it out with the incadecent bulb as backup.  Second, I now leave my LED landing light on all the time for increased visibility.  I think of it as cheap insurance.

I had my second landing light go out in a period of 3 months.  I could see a broken filiment.  I think the jar of setting the cowling on the ground might do it.  Just put in the Whelen LED.  Hope that this one is not susceptable to easy outage.  Any pireps for those that have installed one?

how would you guys compare the LED to the standard incadescent bulb as far as seeing the runway at night?  I read an article, and I believe it said that LEDs tended to be wider and with less distance coverage.  They really liked the HIDs, but the LEDs are much simpler.

I just ordered my Whelen LED last week from Aircraft Spruce. They said it was on back order until the end of the month. Does anyone else know where I can pick one up online?  Where did you recently get yours?
