A runway, taxiway or obstruction fighting system having at least one side emitting LED mounted on a base. A cover is optically coupled to the side emitting LED to direct fight at a desired angle from a horizontal plane extending from the base. The cover is manufactured to have the highest transmissivity when used with a monochromatic LED light source. The color of the material is tuned to the wavelength of the LED light source to obtain the maximum light output. A heater circuit is included in the lighting system wired in series with the side emitting LED. A constant current source is employed to supply power to the side emitting LED and heater circuit so that operation of the heater circuit does not affect the intensity of the light from the side emitting LED.
