Landing Zone Flare Kit

Rotary wing aircraft operated by law enforcement, fire, med-evac and military must often land in non-controlled landing areas, with natural and man-made obstacles (trees, power lines, buildings, etc.). Ground-based personnel will identify an area free of these obstacles and attempt to demarcate the area. Flame flares, cones, and random flashing LED flares are often used. However, multiple vehicles at the site often result in an array of blue, red, orange and white flashing lights, making it difficult for the approaching pilot to easily and quickly identify the obstacle-free area.

Kit includes 5 radio-linked flares with visible and infra-red LEDs. The flares are placed at the corners of a 100 foot (30.48 meter) square free of obstacles, with the 5th flare placed outside of the square to denote wind direction. The flares flash in unison to create an identifiable “constellation” of either infra-red or visible flashing points. The operator may use any one
