Hello everyone,

This is my first thread on this forum :)

I wonder from couple weeks what is a height of buildings where anticollison lights are required? I suppose this is international rule, isn't it?

Salute!

Any temporary or permanent structure, including all
appurtenances, that exceeds an overall height of 200
feet (61m) above ground level (AGL) or exceeds any
obstruction standard contained in 14 CFR part 77,
should normally be marked and/or lighted. However,
an FAA aeronautical study may reveal that the
absence of marking and/or lighting will not impair
aviation safety.

Hello Sky Wanderer, and welcome to the forum.

The international rules you are asking for are contained in Volume I, Chapter 6 of Annex 14 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. You can find a read-only PDF on the Swiss CAA's website (http://www.bazl.admin.ch/dokumentation/grundlagen/02643/index.html?lang=de).
