If your aircraft is on the ground, a steady red light from the control tower light gun means STOP. If you are airborne, a steady red light means to give way to other aircraft, and continue circling.
Exercise extreme caution.
A flashing white control tower light signal indicates that the aircraft should return to the starting point or the ramp. This signal is typically used when there is a need for the aircraft to taxi back to its original position, often due to a request from air traffic control or a safety concern. Pilots should always follow specific instructions from air traffic control when interpreting light signals.
The flashing white light gun signal from the tower typically indicates that the aircraft is cleared to taxi. This signal is part of the visual communication system used in aviation to convey instructions to pilots, particularly in situations where radio communication may be compromised or not possible. Pilots should be attentive to these signals to ensure safe movement on the ground.
It means get off the runway now, or, if flying, do not land here.
Exercise extreme caution

For an aircraft on the ground, it means that you are cleared for taxi. For an aircraft in flight, you must return for landing or go around and attempt landing again.
If the aircraft is in flight, a steady green light signal from the control tower means cleared to land. If the aircraft is on the ground, it means cleared for takeoff. If the light is aimed at ground vehicles or foot traffic, steady green means cleared to cross the runway, or proceed.
The lights from a control tower serve as signals for pilots and ground crew. Generally, a steady green light indicates that it is safe to take off or land, while a steady red light means to stop or hold position. Flashing lights can signal various instructions, such as indicating caution or guiding aircraft during specific maneuvers. These signals help ensure safe operations at the airport.
