Airfield General Night Floodlighting - White or Red

One of the problems with remote airfields with little or no ambient lighting is the black hole effect.

Would lighting up feature such as buildings, trees with low amounts of red light as touristy buildings are often done, would that give you better depth perception and preserve your night vision. I'm thinking of lights planted low to the ground, pointed at 45 degrees from the horizontal and 180 deg away from the runway. I guess you could bathe fences and hedges and grass areas in low levels of light as well.

Would this work?
