Purple Fringing?

[E-Diddy!]

Most of my shots in here were taken with the 70-300mm, notorious for producing chromatic abherrwhatevertheheckitscalled. One way to fix it is to select the area where the abherration occurs, then do Layers>New Adjustment Layer>Hue/Saturation. Set the colors you want to adjust as they appear in the abherration, then raise the lightness all the way up (until it stops looking realistic is usually where I stop) so that the landing light looks like a landing light, not like a light with purple haze surrounding it.

High contrast (black/white) makes it worse...not much you can do.

Note the bottom of the wheels.
Is there a way to reduce/prevent purple fringing?

Is it more/less obvious at a certain focal length or with certain camera settings?

All input is appreciated.
