I'm a private pilot, and I have the hardest time spotting airplane traffic from 3sm miles away. Ready to sit back and have some popcorn reading articles about how manufacturers are supposedly complying with this rule. Unless there's some novel lighting technology I don't know about, this seems like a nontrivial problem to me.
