Red in one wing tip, green in the other
Comment on Why do airplanes have big front "headlights"?

Simple answer: Visibility by other aircraft. The colors and blink patterns also tell them what orientation the craft is in, though I’ve forgotten the specifics as to what means what; I do remember solid white being the front.

I don’t think the headlights are different colors or blink.

In many general aviation planes, they have a wig-wam setting that alternatively flashes the landing lights during the day.
