Configuration of Landing Direction Lights
Provide aviation yellow omni-directional lights in a straight line along one or more of the
centerlines of the helipad, extended, and perpendicular to the perimeter lights. They
must consist of six lights spaced 4.5 meters (15 feet) apart and starting 7.5 meters (25
feet) from the middle perimeter light. Locate the lights in a horizontal plane. (If a
deviation is necessary, a tolerance of plus 2 percent or minus 1 percent in the
longitudinal slope is permitted.) Use elevated fixtures on frangible supports, except use
in-pavement fixtures when taxiing is a requirement. (See Figure 7-3.)
