The safe area L430 is Orga’s Helideck Monitoring System (HMS) Repeater Light specifically designed to indicate the helideck operational status. The HMS Repeater Light provides direct visual information from the helideck to the helicopter flight crew about the motion status of the helideck during landing and potential unsafe wind conditions after landing.
