I put a strobe on the rear fuselage access hatch in the Jantar when we flew upto Mt Isa in 1986. Had a couple of good reports particularly from people seeing it in their periferal vision. Was a home made one with just the tube through the outside.
Local bush fire brigade have some xenon strobes that run for 24 hours on a D cell and are a gas discharge strobe not led.
If buying any watch the light intensity. Led are not a touch on xenon tube Can't remember the unit but think it is lux.
Geez even the Caribou's have a white belly strobe these days. Suppose it stops birdstrikes on the trailing edge.
