Description
(Color of plastic case may differ than pictured)
This is the LHS-100-B Model.
This Landing Height System is FAA-approved for installations on FAA-certified airplanes.
It includes a built-in eye-safe Class 1 Laser (Light Detection and Ranging) along with an audio interface system so height announcements can be heard when coming to land.
- Aural height announcements starting 200 ft.
- Fully enclosed unit with quick-disconnect 4-wire connector
- An advance Audio interface that can be configured to use any language or accent if desired
- Built-in Wi-Fi interface for Set-Up and feedback with any Phone (iOS or Andriod), Tablets, or PC/Laptops
- Runs on both 12V or 24V Aircraft power
- NOW (Dec 2020 FAA approval) includes an option for a “Check Landing Gear” voice reminder. Once enabled via the Wi-Fi interface, this reminder is heard after the system announces the 200′ mark.
The Landing Height System offers situational awareness aid, added safety, and great advantages; especially in situations such as:
- When being used to 50 ft wide runway then visiting a 100 ft or 150 ft wide runways.
- Night landings especially when not current.
- When transitioning from a slower/trainer airplane to a higher-performance airplane.
Customers actual feedback:
– Perfect when going to a wider or different width runway.
– Precise and perfect landing each time.
– Helped me a lot at night landings with my not-so-bright landing light
- 100-B unit starts announcements from 200ft. The 70′ unit (100-G), starts announcements from 70′. (Note: either unit may skip the first announcement depending on obstacles, approach angle and descent rate)
- 100-B unit uses a different cut-out for the Inspection plate. You can see a photo example of each installation on the main page and/or each product page.
- 100-B unit uses a slightly larger case (only a few millimeters extra in height).
- Starting from 70ft and below, both units operate exactly the same.
- 100-B uses a different laser element than a 70′ unit. Both units use the same exact system, circuit board, and wiring.
This unit is approved for installation on an access panel or inspection plate internally (above the access panel; inside the wing or fuselage). Contact us for a different unit that is approved for external installations (below an access panel or inspection plate)

This document covers all the requirements, installation procedures, and approved locations.
The LHS must be installed using a suitable access panel or inspection plate. Almost all general aviation airplanes have a suitable access panel that can fit the LHS unit. In certain situations where a suitable access panel is not available, “Superior Aircraft Components” company is selling an access panel kit prefabricated with the required LHS-100-B cut-outs. The link below takes you directly to their product page & site.
