Devices, methods, and systems for securing a light assembly of an airfield light are described herein. One device includes a light assembly, a base, and a locking assembly configured to secure the light assembly to the base. The locking assembly includes a plunging mechanism configured to compress against a cover of the light assembly while the cover is being rotated relative to the base, and extend into an opening of the cover of the light assembly to secure the light assembly to the base.

Securing a light assembly of an airfield light

Methods and systems are provided for autonomously operating a retractable lighting arrangement. One method involves obtaining a current speed of the vehicle when the lighting arrangement is in an extended state, and when the current speed is greater than a threshold when the lighting arrangement is in the extended state, verifying one or more illumination elements associated with the lighting arrangement are in a deactivated state and thereafter automatically signaling an actuation arrangement associated with the lighting arrangement to transition the lighting arrangement from the extended state to a retracted state.
