Cook Islands and Rarotonga & Cook Islands - one box is too much...
Tokelau will be empty - there is no navigation light - no harbour, no airstrip

Thanks for correction - agreed for all except Montserrat:
they have two nav lights - Airport tower (admiralty J5688) and one more aerolight 0.5 miles NW from runway - Admiralty J5688.2

I thought that this page is for maritime navigation lights; I see here pictures from many other structures..., but why air navigation?

British admiralty list of lights index is for maritime navigation, if light has admiralty index - it is presented at navigation chart as lighthouse. So these lights are both for air and sea simultaneously.

Airports on Montserrat
1/ Blackburne (W.H.Bramble) Airport is under ashes since many years - it was on the eastern side of the island close to the sea shore
2/ Gerald's (John Osborne) Airport is in the middle in the northern part of the island, relatively high (nearly 200 m a.s.l.) from most sides invisible from the sea
On which airport are these lights?
Maybe there will be at least a harbour light in the future (but its not sure, because already now there is a small traffic there including a ferry), because the governement is building a small harbour.

Hola Dmitry!
As I thaught... these lights dont exist anymore, the old airport is covered with ashes, there is nice site to look at, lead by Montserrat Volcano Observatory (btw the newest volcano observatory in the world)

No, no - as I wrote - in the future it will be maybe a harbour light, because they are building now a new capitol and harbour

Now you can see, that there are even in "high" maritime authorities not actual informations...
Have you been looking at
mvo.ms ?
