Landing Zones

Ok, time for the young kid to screw up agian, everyone probly read my discussion about safety belts, which got blown out of the water, but any way this is a different question.

In our department to set up a landing zone we use our parking lot which is ajacent to out firehall, and for markers we either use 4 flares, or 4 cone with lights under them.

I would like to see wat other departments use for landing terrain, and for markers

We do yearly certs here as well. And being rural, also, we set up as near to the pt. as possible. Usually a field or pasture. For markers, we rely on warm bodies, with flashlights at night. I always thought that 4 of the hazard lights from the road department(amber flashers) would work well.

I'll have to remember to bring that up at the next meeting...
