What colour is the strobe light on the PORT wing?
- White.
- Green.
- Red.
Explanation
Strobe (high-intensity anti-collision) lights are white and flash on both wing tips for conspicuity. The coloured port/starboard navigation lights (red on port, green on starboard) are separate steady lights, so the strobe on the port wing is white, not red.

why not red?

Hey!
Don't confuse strobe lights with right-of-way lights. Strobe is always white. It blinks.
