To provide navigational assistance / advice to army aircraft, that encompasses selecting improving, marking, and controlling, PZ/LZ that support AA/Ground ops.

1. Selecting 2. Marking 3. Controlling

1. Landing Point: Clear circular area - 25m, 35m, 50m, 80m, and 100m. 2. Landing Site: Consist of one or more landing points. Must have a control facility. 3. Landing Zone consist of one or more landing sites. May or may not have control facility.

1. Number of A/C. 2. Flying/Landing Formations: Trail, echelon left/right, heavy left/right, staggered tail left/right, vee, diamond. 3.Surface Conditions: Must support weight of AC, and be free from debris. 4. Ground Slope: <_ 7 degrees, skids. 15 degrees no aircraft. 5. Approach and Depart Routes: into the wind, over the lowest obstacle, along the long axis of pz/lz. 6. Prevailing winds: Headwind, tailwind, crosswind: 0-5knots any direction, 6-9 head and cross, 10 knots and above only head. 7. Density Altitude: As the following factors increase, performance decreases: Humidity, Alt. above Sea Level, Temperature. (HAT) 8. Loads consideration: Weight of load, personnel and/or equipment, internal or external, insertion or extraction. 9. Obstacles: 18" or greater (high, wide, or deep) a. ratio - 10:1. b. 4 Rs - Remove, Reduce, Red, Radio

1. Marking the landing zone - minimal identifiable means. 2. Basic equipment - goggles, radio, wind measuring device, vs-17 panels, ect. 3. Markings - Obstacle Ratio 10:1, mark Obstacles, Inverted Y axis, 7Mx14x14. Additional TDP's.
