How other planes can see the lights under a plane??????

They blink so they become distinct from ambient lighting. Just the fact you noticed this means the system works! It is all to get better visibility of the aircraft. The lights (and how they blink) mean different things to someone seeing them but you didn't ask about that.

genuinely a blinking easy is greater seen than a slow easy. The lighting fixtures fixtures help to instruct how super the plane is, whether engines are working, what's the left wing and what's the excellent. The left wing is shown via a purple easy, the excellent has a green one, there are 2 lighting fixtures fixtures one on the actual and the different on the backside to instruct whether the engines are on, there is one on the tailend.

The lights are intended to be seen on ground and while the plane es flying..on ground it will advert people that everything is ready and it is about to move ..It is a signal for the pushback movement operator that brakes onboard are in off position..while flying it identifies if the plane is commercial or military besides being a signal for the control tower to advice the pilot that he is on sight while he is on final approach to the airport in which he is about to land

I think it would be for other planes to see the plane.
It's like when there is a tall building, you will probably see lights on the top of it in case the plane has to make emergency landing, it wont crash into it.

They blink because they are turn signals.
