It is recommended that a helistation light be installed when long-range visual guidance is deemed necessary and is not provided by other visual means, or when it is difficult to identify the helistation due to surrounding lights.

The Helistation Device FLASHELEK meets the requirements of theICAO (Chapter 14) and FAA.
