CL65 FLC TAXIED TO PARKING WITHOUT SOME ARPT TXWY LIGHTING DUE TO A MALFUNCTION IN THE LIGHTING SYS.

Narrative

WE WERE ON A REVENUE FLT FROM ATL TO DHN. AT APPROX 120 MI OUT OF DHN; WE GOT THE DHN ASOS. IT SAID THAT THE SE PORTION OF TXWY A HAD ITS TXWY LIGHTS OUT. IT ALSO SAID THE TWR HAD CLOSED FOR THE NIGHT. AT APPROX 40 MI OUTSIDE THE ARPT; ZJX ADVISED US THAT THE SE PORTION OF TXWY A HAD TXWY LIGHTS OUT. WE (CAPT AND MYSELF) DISCUSSED AND AGREED TO LAND. THE RWY LIGHTS WERE ON AND SET TO MEDIUM INTENSITY AND WE PLANNED TO LAND ON RWY 32 AND DEPART THE RWY AT TXWY D; WHICH IS ON THE NW END OF TXWY A. WE LANDED ON RWY 32; AND TURNED OFF THE RWY AT TXWY D. WE TURNED L ON TXWY A TOWARD THE RAMP. THIS PORTION OF TXWY A HAD TXWY LIGHTS. AS WE CONTINUED; WE SAW THAT THE TXWY LIGHTS WERE UNLIT FOR A SHORT PORTION OF TXWY A. WE HAD TO TAXI WITHOUT TXWY LIGHTS; BUT THE TXWY WAS WELL LIT FROM FLUORESCENT LIGHTS FROM AN FBO RAMP AND THE TXWY HAD CTRLINE MARKING. THE NEXT DAY; WE ASKED THE CHIEF PLT AND FLT MGR ABOUT THE SIT. THEY WERE UNSURE AS TO WHETHER IT WAS LEGAL TO TAXI WITHOUT TAXI LIGHTS UNDER THE FAR'S. WE BOTH FELT IT WAS SAFE OP; BUT WAS IT LEGAL? IF YOU COULD RESPOND ON THE MATTER; WE WOULD APPRECIATE IT. ALSO; I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THE TAXI LIGHTS BEING OUT WAS NOT IN THE NOTAMS AND WE WERE UNAWARE UNTIL THE ASOS AT DHN. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: IT WAS CLARIFIED WITH RPTR REGARDING THE ARPT TXWY LIGHTING NOT BEING REQUIRED LIGHTING PER FAR 121(B)(2)(II).
