Were the flares fired from the Caravan? RED-probably instruction to abort landing and GREEN-cleared to land. Maybe runway obstructed or bird issue.

Yes that is correct they were fired from the caravan at 25 end - It would make sense as there were birds in that area.TARGET wrote:Were the flares fired from the Caravan? RED-probably instruction to abort landing and GREEN-cleared to land. Maybe runway obstructed or bird issue.
EDIT: The use of flares was part of the sortie, practising emergency aborted landings.
Thanks for the information.
