A lone C-130 flew in to MEZ last night for some lights out landing practice. While performing this landing, the runway lights, beacon and other lights are turned off. The pilot relies on electronic devices to safely guide the airplane down onto the runway. Except for starlight and building lights, it was dark, very dark. The infrared camera measures heat rather than light to create the video. (Thank you Rodger S.) Also, thank you MPD for standing by last night.
