The LED CHAPI Heliport Approach Path Indicators (CHAPI) uses LED technology to provide the pilot with safe and accurate glide slope on final approach to the helipad. A set of two LED CHAPI Light Housing Assemblies (LHAs) are seen by the pilot in combinations of white, green and red to indicate a path that is too high, too low or within the 6° ±0°15' glide slope.
Solar power system is optional for CHAPI.
