Abstract: An entry step lighting system for a deployable aircraft stairway. The system includes steps that having integrated light sources that direct and provide illumination to the steps. Some light sources illuminate strip lenses which indicate proximity to the step edges. Light emitted by a second group of light sources is directed into an angled face established on a riser wall between each step. The light bounces off of each angled face to illuminate the step below.

Abstract: A quick attach bracket includes a first portion and a second portion aligned substantially perpendicular with the first portion, a retaining ridge disposed across the first portion and extending in the direction of the second portion, and a hub disposed on the second portion and extending in the direction of the first portion. The retaining ridge is configured to receive a flange of a structure. The hub includes a sidewall that extends from the second portion in the direction of the first portion, a façade aligned with the second portion, and a rounded portion connecting the sidewall and the façade to assist with installation of the hub into a recess or through-hole of the structure. The quick attach bracket is installable by hand via hooking of the retaining ridge on the flange and insertion of the hub into the recess or through-hole.
