Which signs indicate the designation of the intersecting taxiways leading out of an intersection?

• A. Destination Signs
• B. Direction Signs
• C. Mandatory Signs
• D. Wind Sock

Answer: (B)

Direction signs point you to the next taxiway and show its designation as you exit an intersection. They’re placed at the junction to indicate which way to turn and which intersecting taxiway you’ll be on, using an arrow and the taxiway’s designator. This makes them the best fit for identifying the intersecting taxiways leaving an intersection. Destination signs also involve taxiway designators, but they indicate the taxiway you’ll reach by continuing in a given direction rather than the immediate exit you should take. Mandatory signs are red and tell you where hold-short or entry restrictions apply, not which taxiway to exit onto, and a wind sock simply shows wind direction, not taxiway designations.
