Evaluating Safety Tools for Helipads

I’ve been reviewing some new safety tools specifically designed for helipads, and I wonder if anyone has experience with the latest perimeter marking systems. Improving visibility is crucial, but I want to ensure that these tools truly enhance situational awareness for ground crews. Any input would be valuable.

I’ve found that using LED perimeter lights really made a difference for visibility on our helipad, especially during low-light conditions. They’re bright enough to enhance situational awareness for the ground crew, but be mindful that they can sometimes be overkill in well-lit areas. Have you considered any specific brands or models?

Perimeter marking’s crucial for visibility, especially at night. @tina_kline95, have you considered reflective paint? It’s cost-effective and enhances awareness without extra hardware.
