# Compliance evidence pack (UNOFFICIAL) - **Question:** UFC 3-535-01 - **Generated:** 2026-07-21 20:12 UTC - **e-Publishing catalog checked:** 2026-07-12 - **Supplement layer:** none selected - **Source:** CheckMyAFI (https://checkmyafi.com) — unofficial reference > **UNOFFICIAL — VERIFY BEFORE CITING.** Quotes come from indexed copies of public publications. The certified PDF on e-Publishing is the only authoritative source. Your MAJCOM/unit supplement may be stricter. ## Synthesized answer (unofficial) I can see UFC 3-535-01 is referenced throughout these passages as the governing standard for visual air navigation facilities, but the passages provided do not contain the actual substantive requirements or sections of UFC 3-535-01 itself—only figures showing landing zone lighting layouts, approach lighting configurations, and taxiway light positioning tolerances. To answer a specific question about UFC 3-535-01, I would need passages that contain the actual regulatory text or requirements sections from that publication. Not found in the indexed publications — check the official source. Unofficial — answered from indexed publication text, which may be incomplete or out of date.
