Lights on taxiway

I never knew which lights are supposed to be on while taxiing like the landing light/strobe light/nav light/ beacon light

While taxiing off of a runway you would use your Nav lights to indicate the Aircraft has power, your Beacon light to indicate it is powered by It’s engines.

If you are taxing in the day you’re becon lights should be on and if in night landing and becon lights should be on

NAV light: always
Beacon: while engine is on
Landing: (I taxi with my landing light on since we don’t have taxi lights) OFF above 10,000ft MSL and ON below 10,000 MSL
Strobe: ON while on runway and during entire flight, turned OFF after exiting runway

Correct! Strobes are on ONLY once you’ve crossed the Hold Short line onto a runway
