Green lights!!!! As the large A380 configures itself onto the ILS and the pilots continue to go through their landing checklist, they look out at the large 2 runway international airport, and see approach lights, taxiway lights, runway lights, strobes from taxiing aircraft, beacons flashing on the many ground vehicles moving around, headlights, not to mention street lights as the airport is surrounded by houses, and car headlights on the roads below.

But despite these many distractions our 2 super eagles eyed pilots spot a tiny steady green pin head of a light pointing directly towards them.

I guess we are cleared to land they say!!!!

It's another success story for ATC!!!
